Distress Ink Halloween Background + Dress Up an Image with Stamps



Love the Halloween sky in these cards.  So fun and easy.  Apply yellow distress ink in a circle and then surround with blues and purples.  Sprinkle a little bit of water and you're done.


Fe-Line.  Hah - love the word play!  Such a cute name for this line of felines die.   Also love the black glitter paper.  It's corrugated like cardboard.   I picked it up at a cool little shop in Wichita.  Guess I won't be going there again any time soon, considering my bunch have moved on to Savannah.  I'll have to find all the cool little shops in Savannah.  Something fun to look forward to...


Dennis says this sweet little girl looks like Louisa.  I think she does, too!  She's not a Halloween image, but the black cat lends itself to dressing her up for Halloween.  I just added a cute witch's hat and voila!  she's dressed up for Halloween.  Just to take it even further I added a couple of pumpkins in front of the fence and some bats to the Halloween sky.   Think about adding stamps to printed images - fun!

Cat Eyes Made Easy - Another Black Cat and A Scotty


I'm sticking with my tradition here.  Black cats continued...  They really are my favorite part of Halloween.  

This black cat starts out as just a chipboard face.  I added a party hat and I like that.  But I kept thinking about the eyes.  There were no eyes.  I just kept thinking he needs eyes!  I tried a few different things and didn't like how any of them looked.   I really wanted him to have green eyes, probably because my black kitty has green eyes.



Then AHA! I figured out the perfect solution.  And so easy too.  Start with a circle and cut part of it away.  I then added a thin piece of black cardstock.  And Yes!  These eyes look just the way I want them to!



I thought I could punch a hole in the top and add some twine and he would look really cute hanging out.  He also works perfectly to gift a little treat.  I just clipped a small treat bag to his ear.



A scotty for Halloween?  Sure, why not?  He's a cutie and I love the background.  I've got him all ready for you to download, if you would like to make a little Halloween something with him, too.





The sentiment comes with the download, too.

Oh, my gosh!  I've been so busy.  Making things and off to Savannah three times already!

I made Louisa's costume and, of course, she's going to be a black cat.  Her mommy, Lauren, was a black cat for her third Halloween.  So it's sort of a tradition.  I got the costume all ready to go and shipped it to Savannah.  When I got there, we tried everything on and made adjustments.  Isn't she adorable in cat ears?

So glad you stopped by!
