Here’s a pretty easy Halloween card to make with a spooky cat! If you are a cat lover, Stampin’ Up! has made it easy for you this fall season to enjoy cats! We have the new Spooky Night Designer Series Paper with a whole page of cats! And Stampin’ Up! makes it even more fun with the new Cat Punch! How crazy is that?! You can use the Cat Punch on both the designer paper and on stamped images! This cat is punched out of the designer paper and adhered on to the card.
Some of the coordinating colors with this Spooky Night Paper are Pumpkin Pie and Cajun Craze. For this card, I made the card base Pumpkin Pie and a polka dot panel of the designer paper. To make the paper stand out a bit, I put a narrow layer of Very Vanilla behind it.
One of the fun stamp sets this season is the Labels To Love Stamp Set. It has enough greetings to cover several occasions and has a cute one for Halloween. I used the Stampin’ Write Markers in Basic Black, Pumpkin Pie, and Cajun Craze to color directly on the stamp to get a multi-colored look. The fun thing about the labels in this stamp set is that there is a punch to match – the Everyday Label Punch by Stampin’ Up! Since I wanted to layer the stamped Very Vanilla piece on to Cajun Craze I had to trim down the Very Vanilla label. It was pretty easy with my Paper Snips and just following the lines on the label itself to make it a little bit smaller. Then I just punched a plain label of Cajun Craze.
To jazz things up a little bit, I did three things. Before I layered the labels I adhered a bit of the Vintage Crochet Trim in Basic Black in the Holiday Catalog to the bottom of the vanilla label. Next I made a little Gold Glimmer banner to go underneath the label and adhered the label with Stampin’ Dimensionals. And for just a finishing touch, I stuck on two Black Rhinestone Jewels. They are already black so you don’t have to color the regular rhinestones yourself!
