Frightening Feline Card


Halloween will be here in eighty-four days and I decided to get a head start on making my cards! It is one of my favorite holidays to make cards for family and friends. I think it's the colors that I enjoy working with the most. To create this Frightening Feline Card I used the sketch from Sketch Saturday. I stretched the sketch into a 5.25" square card to accommodate the spider web doily accent and since the image is text, I stamped bats in the sentiment area. The focal image is retired by Stampin' Up! called Frightening Feline, I really love it and I don't feel like I've used it enough. I stamped it using Memento black ink and then added some grunge splatters from the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set. The edge of the image panel was inked using a paint brush along with Purple Twilight alcohol ink that had been diluted with a small portion of 70% Isopropyl Alcohol. All patterned papers are by DCWV from the Eek-A-Boo paper stack. That's it! Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the rest of your day!
