TRIED to create a LTC *Spoiler*

Well I tried to make a LTC yesterday. I have received a few LTCs at this point, but have not tried to create one yet. I am not that creative so I have not really gotten into this yet. It is very so-so but I tried, so that is an accomplishment for me. Being around all these great carvers (Mama Wolf, Knit Wit, Mama Fox, Dixie, 't', threespoiledboxers, etc.) is wonderful, it challenges you to carve better, BUT it also makes you want to hide your stamps (in a box on the craft table instead of where people could see em !). I only made 6 cards, so I listed it as a limited series (I think that is right!) and have one already promised. I thought I would post my first attempt here so....

SPOILER ..... if you don't want to see it close the window now.

So there I tried..... not sure that I will get into LTCs like the rest of you, we will see.

** update ** here is the image it came from ..... I thought it was cool and very evil looking ..... http://farm1.static.flickr.com/74/199397635_3433b24d83.jpg?v=0

OK... I'm a "not-too-hot" carver too. And I've only participated in one LTC vicariously with my children.
SO... I like what I see, but I'm not sure what I see. LOL *hugs* Is it a reference to a book I'm not getting?

OK... Now I remember what the reference is to.... and I get the kind of wormy thing... I'm just not really good at interpreting art sometimes...
No, it's REALLY me... it's not you. ;)
EMMM

I compared it to the original and I think you did a great job. Very creepy and menacing.

Hey! I think your card is looking at me! Great job. Would you consider making more cause these are going to go VERY fast.
