🎃Day 13 of 31 Days of Halloween 2019🎃 
The Quirkleighs CarnEvil Collection
Carved Skelly Cat

 You're all standing dazed in the empty field and looking bewildered at the stack of ominous carved pumpkins where the Quirleighs CarnEvil stood!  

Next to the pumpkins sits a very strange cat wickedly grinning!

The Carved Skelly Cat purrs....
" Til Next Time "
....as he stalks off into thin air!

 The Quirkleighs CarnEvil vanished as mysteriously as it appeared!

Beware!
Your town could be next! 

You won't be able to resist buying a ticket from the Puppet Master!
mwahahahahahaha!

I printed the Carved Skelly Cat from the Quirkleighs CarnEvil Collection out twice and coloured them with Copics with white Prismacolor pencil highlights.   I fussy cut the entire image on one of the prints and then just the head, neck, shoulder blades and front legs on the 2nd.  I added Judikins Diamond glaze to his eyes and his lil heart shaped nose and then eye highlights with a white Dylusions paint pen.

 For the card base I made a tall and thin folded card from a sheet of matt black Crafter's Companion cardstock.  Then I created the bootiful "sun rise" sky background with mixed media cardstock sprayed with Mustard Seed, Worn Lipstick, Candied Apple and Seedless Preserves Distress Oxide Sprays.

 The moon is low in the sky at this early hour so I used Hero Arts Cloudy Moon die to cut a moon into my background.  I then inlaid the moon die cut from another background I made using Mustard Seed, Ground Espresso, Seedless Preserves, Salty Ocean and Blueprint Sketch Distress Oxide Sprays and some dimensional white shimmer to the clouds with a Ice White Viva Pearl Pen.   I stamped the tiny bat from Stampendous onto the moon with black pigment ink.

 To creep up the scene even more I applied the Grime pattern (Tim's layering stencil) with Black Soot Distress Ink around the edges of the entire background panel.  Then added Tim's clear Rock Candy Distress Crackle Paint to all the edges and the tiny stamped bat.  For the sentiment I replicated the look of Tim's Quote Chips I used on my Quirkleighs CarnEvil decor pieces.  The sentiment by Stampendous is stamped and embossed in white embossing powder onto CC black cardstock.  To make it nice and chunky I layered it up onto a few more pieces of the same cardstock then finished the edges of the sentiment and the edges of the folded base card with Midas Spectrum Noir metallic gold pigment ink.

I then die cut out one of Tim's Wildflower Stems #2, greenery from Tim's mini Holiday Greens and grass from Lawn Fawn.  The grass got a clear Rock Candy Distress Crackle paint coat and I added sparkle to the flower and greenery with an Onyx Black Spectrum Noir sparkle pen.

 

I applied Spectrum Noir Inca Gold gilding wax to the crackled background panel edges and the grass and mounted the background panel onto the card base with foam tape and glued the grass to the bottom of the panel then added the sentiment.  I tucked the full Skelly Cat print behind the grass and adhered him to the background but left his ears free so I could bend them forward.  I then mounted the top layer of the fussy cut Skelly Cat with black pop dots for extra dimension.  I then completed my scene with the flower and greenery.
