All aboard the Skelly Cat Train of Fun....its time to go Trick or Treatingπ
Everyone is out this Halloween and ready for a haunting good timeπ
All our precious kitties that have crossed over are smiling down upon us tonightπ»
I used Cats Galoreto create my magical sky and coloured it with Hickory Smoke, Shaded Lilac, Wilted Violet and Mermaid Lagoon Distress Oxide inks then splattered with Wilted Violet Distress Oxide spray and Tarnished Pewter Distress Stain spray.
Last October we lost our precious kitty Mango so he’s watching over the evening spooktivities here as the Mango Moonπ» Mango was the inspiration for my Kitty Pumpkin Hat designπ»
The Grass border cut file by Paige Evans and the Train is a modified cut file by Emily Dyer are from Silhouette Design Store and I applied silver Spectrum Noir Midas pigment ink to the edges. I welded the Train to the silhouette of my Carved Skelly Cat for one continuous cut. I matted my Carved Pumpkin Distress Oxide coloured "Happy Haunting" senti and the main scene panel onto black glitter card and then mounted everything onto a white folded card base I made from heavy weight cardstock. I adhered the Train and all the Balleigh Monsters and pumpkins to the card with black foam tape and the 4 pumpkins to the grass with more foam tape for 3 levels of 3D fun!
What a spooktacular time all the monsters and beasties are havingπ
