TTSVC1 First Sookie challenge on TT!!

Twilight tuesday started A sookie Stackhouse challenge last month in April for all the lovers of Charlaine Harris' vampire series! I have read one and two of the series so far and I really like them! This challenge was originally posted in April and I am finally doing this one now! I had just heard about sookie but didnt read them yet!
The inspiration is the First book of the series Dead Until Dark.

I liked this book! the characters are interesting, I would have to say the first things that come to mind is Sookies blue eyes and blond hair, also her work outfit which is White T, black shorts, white socks and black nikes, she spends ALOT of time there so she is always wearing this outfit!

SO I used that as inspiration for the color scheme, black, white and a touch of pacific point blue. I also used the birdie inspiration set from unity because when Bill the vampire comes around he can hover and that is like flying like a bird!
here is my card, I used black patterned paper from Margie, then I layered good morning sunshine dp then black dp then the stamped panel on white. I added ribbon reminded me of blond hair. the bird is also from the same stamp set and covered in crystal effects.
Stamps Used: Birdie Inspiration-Unity Stamp co
paper used: black pp, good morning sunshine dp SU, whisper white SU, ghostly greetings dp SU
Ink Used: basic Black SU, pacific point SU
Accessories Used: red sticky tape, bazzil ribbon
Check in again on May 15th for a new Sookie Stackhouse challenge on Twilight Tuesday!!!
Till Later!!
