Happy Monday, everyone! It's a week until Halloween! Have you sent out any cards? I made a big dent in my (hoarded) stash, but it's always fun to use my Halloween stamps, so I decided to make another one The Just Us Girls photo challenge was too cute to pass up, and the In(k)spire Me sketch worked with the stamp I had in mind!
So here we go--it's pretty clean and simple! I started with a Basic Gray card base and added some Frightful DSP from My Mind's Eye:
I got this little cat on a pumpkin a few years back from 100 Proof Press! He just cracks me up! I have had the cats border as well as the "Halloween" for a while, too....I believe they are from Graphic 45. The "Happy" and the flourish are both from an older Crafty Secrets set. I stamped them all in Basic Black ink and colored in the pumpkin with Tangerine Tango ink, then added some sequins...easy peasy! I did do the sketch in the landscape mode, as the elements fit better that way!
The inside was stamped with an older Lizzie Kate sentiment, which I love too!
Out in the mail it goes! And thanks for popping in today!
Have you hugged a pumpkin today?

What a fun Halloween card, LeAnne! Love the polka dot paper in Halloween colors and those adorable black cats! Love the black sequins too! I have made quite a few Halloween cards which are ready to go out in the mail today! WooHoo, for once I was prepared! LOL TFS and hope you enjoy your Monday! :)
Halloween is my least favorite "holiday" BUT, your card makes it fun! Now there are more companies I have to search on Google :-) With the card shown in the portrait version, it looks like it could easily be an easel card. Love the pumpkins with sweet Cassidy. Have a blessed week.
Super 'Halloween-y' LeAnne ... a total treat!

LeAnne, what a great take on the inspiration photo. I love the embossing on that DSP and the line of cats creeping along the top is perfect! So glad you joined us at JUGS this week
