Cat on the Fence

There is something that I just love bout this card!  I saw similar cards on both Niki &Pinterest.  There were things I liked on both so I merged them together.  I started with the fence.  I cut the purple using the Stampin Up! rosette die.  This gave me great even peaks on the fence.  Then I ran it through the Big Shot again to give it the wood grain effect.  Before I attached the ribbon onto the back of the fence.  Then I stamped the Frightening Feline stamp using the stayson black stamp pad.  This is a darker stamp pad and it works well on the shiny paper.  Then I used the 2 1/2" circle to cut around the cat.  I attached the circle low to make it look like the cat was sitting on the fence in the moon light!  I had a hard time decided if I wanted to use the googly eyes or not.  I decided to use them because I am sending them out to my friends with kids.

Owl in the Moon

I got my basic idea from 2 Bada Bing cards.  I mixed the 2 cards and this is what I got!!!  It is pretty basic, but to add dimension I sponged I the moon.  After I made my sample I realized I should have used a Stayson stamp pad to make the owl darker.  When I was done with the owl I colored her goggles and the bag.

Halloween Wreath

I had so much fun making this wreath!  I used a multitude of Halloween colored papers and created this fun wreath.  I cut the large die strips in smaller pieces.  This helped to create the different sizes in the rosettes.  I cant wait to make another one for the next holiday!!!!!
