Hello and Happy Sunday to you! Today finally feels like fall here in South Texas and what better way to get into the season then with a Halloween card? This week at the
Paper Players, the lovely and talented
Nance is our hostess with a fun
"Trick or Treat" theme challenge.
For my card, I actually CASE'd myself. Haha! I made another card with the Frightening Feline stamp and I changed up the colors and patterns a bit to make it more "traditional" Halloween. I guess I may have cheated a little bit, but I haven't had a lot of extra time this week to spend in the stamp studio. Do you sometimes use projects you have already made as inspiration for new projects? Sometimes I need a little "kick" to get the mojo workin' again.
It's tough to see in the photo but the kitty is embossed in black for added shine. The Champagne Glimmer paper and some bling finished everything off. I hope you will join us this week over at the
Paper Players. The challenge is open until
Friday October 11th, 2013 at Noon (PDT). Be sure to stop by and visit the rest of the Design Team to see what they have created for the challenge:

Before I sign off, I wanted to share a new photo of our little foster puppy Sabrina. Well, actually her new family decided to name her Willow...but I'm having a tough time remembering to call her that. This little lady is going to be headed to her new home in Minnesota this week. Her new family is super excited to finally meet her. We are going to miss this little bundle of cuteness! :)

ReplyDeleteI can't decide which is cuter--your sweet (not frightening) feline card or the adorable Willow! Love 'em both and I totally hear you on case-ing ourselves. I do it alot! Love it! Hope you had a calmer week...((hugs))
ReplyDeleteOK... the card is great... but seriously.... as soon as I saw the photo of Willow I was completely in love and forgot all about your fabulous card. What a gorgeous puppy. I'm so glad she is going to a loving home!

Not being a "halloween girl", I can't believe that I really like that Halloween cat. I could actually see myself making cards with it (plse don't tell anyone!). And speaking of liking .... omg, that little Sabrina is a total bundle of sweetness. Wishing her a life of health and unconditional love with her new forever family.
