Hello Crafters,

Halloween will be here before we know it.  I am sure everyone will want to send out cards to their special people in their life. Today’s card is quick and fun to create.

I started with a traditional black cat. This cat is a three layered stamp from the Kat Scrappiness Stamp set called Toil & Trouble Stamp and die. Using three shades of gray I stamped the cat. Used green to stamp the eyes then die cut it out.

To create the background I used a Kat Scrappiness A-2 piece of acetate as my palette. On this acetate I dabbed Tim Holtz Distressed   oxide in mowed lawn, peeled paint and forest moss. Then water is spritzed onto the ink. The layer one piece of water color paper is then pressed onto the inks. Dabbing the ink onto the paper to create the background. This is done to the liking of the creator of the card.

Using Kat Scrappiness Never Ending Circle dies cut out a circle/ring for the cat to be framed. Stamp the sentiment from the Toil & Trouble  Stamp set in black. Adhere the circle over the inked background and center the cat in it. Add a few sequins from the Kat Scrappiness Black Tie sequin mix and the card is complete.

Cards can be simple and still be beautiful.
