Welcome to our Create with Stamping Friends Inspiration Monday challenges. This week’s inspiration challenge is a witchy black cat! So cute!
POTIONS & SPELLS
The only black cat I could think to use is in the Potions & Spells Bundle (online exclusive). I also used the fun Halloween Spells Designer Paper along with it…love the bright colors!
Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Granny Apple Green cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Gray Granite cardstock was added on top and the greeting stamped at the bottom in Memento Black Ink.
- Four 1-3/4 x 1-3/4 squares of Halloween Spells 12×12 DSP were added to the background.
- The circle was cut with the Stylish Shapes Dies from Basic White cardstock and the bubble stamped randomly in the background with Granny Apple Green Ink and colored with Light Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends. The ground was shaded with Light Gray Granite Stampin’ Blends. It was added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The cat was stamped with Memento Black Ink on Basic Gray cardstock and cut with the Potions & Spells Die, then added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Some Black Basic Essentials Baker’s Twine was tied around the cat’s tail in a bow.
- The large bottle was cut from Lemon Lime Twist and label from Gorgeous Grape cardstocks, the smaller bottle from Basic White and Pumpkin Pie cardstocks using the dies. They were added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- A trio of Transparent Adhesive Backed Dots were added to the background.
- I used a white gel pen to highlight the eyes.
How fun is that? I really wish we would have a witch hat I could have added to her head! OK, check out Debbie’s Inspiration Monday card over on Create with Stamping Friends!
