Card #1
First up is a Halloween card. It measures 4" x 6" so it's a bit larger than my usual A2 card size. The gorgeous image was included in this month's free collage sheet from Gecko Galz as part of their monthly newsletter. You can sign up for their newsletter here (see left-hand sidebar). I printed the image on photo paper and mounted it on a journal card that I cut from DCWV Halloween Night 12x12 paper pad. I heat-embossed the Newton's Nook sentiment in white on a black scrap. I added a die-cut cat and bat (Frantic Stamper) and a charm from my stash.

Card #2
My second card was made awhile ago but I haven't posted it on my blog until now. I found this kitty picture in a magazine and I thought it looked so much like our Snowie that I had to cut it out and make a card! The background is stamped with Stampin' Up French Script in SU Going Gray ink. I added a rose and some floral corners from my stash.

Card #3
My final card features Stampendous Fluffles Gift, an older wood-mounted stamp that is now out of production. I coloured the image with watercolour markers. The background is stamped repeatedly with a Kelly Panacci gift stamp and Penny Black sentiment. I added a copper charm tied with orange twine.

ReplyDeleteLove your vintage Halloween card with the added cat die cut and fun sentiment, and the sweet little Fluffles design. I can't believe I never added any Fluffles stamps to my craft stash through all these years!

Very cute cards but my favorite is Halloween card #1! I love the vintage image and the kitties too!
ReplyDeleteAll 3 cards look amazing....I really love the vintage image on the first, so cute!
ReplyDeleteThese three cards are very different one by the others, but all so impressive and beautiful! The first one is gorgous with its vintage style and the lovely image! My favourite is the second one with that "Snowy look-alike", so sweet and feminine with the rose!! And the last one looks so fun!! :D Love the little gift charm!
