Black Cat - Have Fun (Magenta stamp)

Hello, everyone!  I will be announcing my candy winner later today so stay tuned! Thank you all for birthday wishes!  Before I share my card, a big welcome goes out to four lovely new followers - Maureen Anderson, KraftyKoolKat, Nicola Gold, and Donna - so happy to have you here!

Today I have made a Halloween card.  I like to play along at Magenta each month and this time their challenge is Halloween.  I don't have any of their Halloween stamps so I had to improvise a bit!


The Magenta stamp I used is called Swirl Tail Cat, and I heat-embossed it in white (The Artistic Stamper) on black cardstock and fussy-cut.  Here's my stamp:


I embossed the bottom part of the white panel with Cuttlebug Coolio.  The patterned papers are from Halloween Cuties by Panda Bear Designs at Stitchy Bear's Digi Outlet (purple),  and Mygrafico (green), and I die cut them into banners with my Taylored Expressions Banner Stacklets 1.  For the sentiment I used tiny alphabet stickers.  The twine is from American Craft.  The witch's hat and star sequin are from Dollarama.
