This card came together so quick! The background is ink blended with Distress Oxides with a stencil from CAS-ual Friday called Curtis. The focal image and sentiments are from the Simon Says Stamp set called Creepy Cute. I colored with kitty witch and EEK! sentiment with Prismacolor pencils and fussy cut them out. I die cut circles to pop the cat onto. The BOO! sentiment was die cut with a banner die from the Cutter Bee Banners die set. For a finishing touch, I added Nuvo Glaze to the kitty nose and buckle of the witch hat, and some colored rhinestones from my stash. I also added Wink of Stella to the witch hat and EEK! sentiment to add a wee bit more shine. You can see it if you click to enlarge this picture.

Thank you so much for the sweet comment… *and* for selecting this card as a Top Pick!!! I just saw 😁 Is there a Top Pick badge or button I can add to my blog other than the main challenge button? And no, I had not seen the list of upcoming challenges but I will be all over that! Will check back in a few days when the list is updated for November!
