Halloween Kitty

So I have been very neglectful with my blogging these past few month. I have been a bit depressed with my husbands’ new work schedule. It has not given me the warm and fuzzies to create these past few weeks. I am hoping to get better. I find when I finally sit down to write I end up napping on the couch or crocheting something for someone else. Check out this blanket I did for my Chiropractor’s new baby coming next month.

Now back to the card at hand. LOL

This Cat Punch card is so super simple and a perfect Halloween card.

I started with 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 inch Crushed Curry Cardstock folded in half for the base.
A piece of Basic Black cut at 5 1/4 x 4 inch. I then took the largest circle of the Layering Circles Framelits and cut out the “moon”. With this leftover piece, I punched out my Cat with the punch.
Taking your basic black lay it atop the crushed curry where you would like it to be and sponge some Pumpkin Pie ink with a sponge. This creates your moon’s textured look.
I then placed my Linen thread around my basic black and then popped it up with dimentionals.
Take your small circle punch and cut out 3 circles. Stamp a pumpkin face on one. I drew mine in after realizing I had one from the Paper Pumpkin kit that we got for September. I was a little bummed about that. Oh well, I can redo it again if I choose to for the kids.
I then took the Whisper White craft in and sponged it onto all the circles and then a bit on my punched out Cat. Place all your circles together with some glue staggering them so they look like a pumpkin. I did use a touch of old olive for a leaf on the pumpkin.
I glued the cat and the pumpkin onto the basic black and used a dimensionals for the head of the cat to keep it popped up.
Lastly, I took a 1/4 x 4 inch piece of pumpkin pie cardstock and stamped Happy Halloween on it.

A simple and quick card for the Grandkids…
