GIU - Day 2 Stir The Pot (Two Old Bats Halloween Challenge).

 Welcome! - Today is Day 2 of my GIU (Growing in Unity) stamp week. -  I want to thank everyone who left comments on yesterday's card.  

Before I post today's card PLEASE leave a name in your comment so I can put you in for the $20 Voucher.  I had several comments yesterday that were (anonymous) and a name was not left in the comment.  If you left one on the Pumpkin card please check to see if you included your name so I can count you in for the drawing at the end of my term. 

Now let's get on with today's card.  -  I love Halloween and Cats so this card was a perfect combination for me. Click to enlarge photos.


This card used another stamp from the September KOM (Harvest to Holiday).  That little "witch kitty" just made me laugh when I saw it and I knew I had to use it for one of this weeks cards.

I used a piece of Granny Apple Green cs and stamped an old SU background Sanded with some white pigment ink but unless you look really close you can't see it because my pigment ink pad isn't the greatest.  I'll be investing in a better one soon.  I added a punch goo border that I punched from Old Olive cs and embossed with a Versa Mark pad & Clear Embossing powder 2 or 3 times to give it some dimension.

Card Base is Purple (one of SU retired colors though).  The designer paper is from DCWV. The witch cat was stamped with Memento Tuxedo ink and colored with Pencils and blended with Gamsol using blending stumps.  I added some light gray splatter with an old SU stamp (Itty Bitty Backgrounds).  I cut it out with a Square die (SU Stylish Dies) and then mounted it on a piece of Tangerine Tango* cs and distressed the edges. The sentiment was stamped with Memento Tuxedo black ink.  I added sequins (Picket Fence Studio) to compete the card and mounted the focal image with foam tape.

Will be sharing this over on the Two Old Bats Halloween challenge as well.

What a fun mood board.  Love the cat and witch hats...thus the inspiration for this card.
