Day 29 of 31 Days of Halloween
"Happy CAToWeen"
CAToWeen Crew
Slimline Book Panel by Leigh
Happy CAToWeen and National Cat Day from the CAToWeen Crew!
It's Day 29 of our 31 Days of Halloween
SPOOKtivities already and I'm back today with my
PURRtastic slimline book panel featuring the whole CAToWeen Crew of 4 Halloween Loveleigh
Kitties and a matching senti from my new CAToWeen 2024 Loveleigh Kitties Halloween Collection and SVG Cutz Clouds from my Once Upon a Nightmare Halloween 2021 Collection. Check everything out and more in my Halloween Sale!
Catrina, Hocus Pocus, CAToWeen and Count Catula are on the prowl in the magical moonlight as the Witching Hour fast approaches!
I coloured all the kitties digitally in Adobe Fresco, printed them out quite tiny and fussy cut them out with scissors leaving a very narrow white border that makes them pop nicely against the background.
My
31 Days of Halloween makes are going in a slimline book I'm making so I first
made a slimline 4" x 9" book panel from heavy weight black
cardstock then cut a mat layer from purple glitter card 1/8' inch smaller. For the main background I used a bootiful 12 x 12 inch patterned paper scene by Crafter's Companion that was PURRfect for my book panel and cut it 1/8 inch smaller than the glitter card mat. I then edged the background panel with Spectrum Noir Midas Silver pigment ink for a touch of
distressed metallic elegance and adhered everything together with glue.
I adhered 2 of my Once Upon a Moonlit Night Colouritze It SVG Cutz Clouds cut from white glitter paper to the background scene with glue.
I then adhered all the kitties to the scene with glue too.
The "Happy Catoween" senti is from the the Catoween Senties set of 4 kitty themed Halloween sentiments which I printed and fussy cut out using my Silhouette Cameo 5 electronic cutting machine.
I then coloured the sentii with Seedless Preserves Distress Ink and adhered it in place with foam tape for some fun dimension.
The finishing touch of today's slimline book panel is the Spellbinders Pumpkin Elements die cut border.
To make a nice chunky border element I die cut the pumpkins twice from heavy weight black cardstock and embossed the first one with a die cut embossing mat to get all the die details. I then applied metallic silver pigment ink to enhance all the embossed detail.
I then backed the 2nd border with adhesive tape, die cut the border again out of orange glitter card and paper pieced the orange glitter card pumpkin faces into the black border.
Next I adhered the embossed border to the paper pieced border with glue to create the SPOOKtacular chunky 3D effect which I then adhered to the slimline book panel with black foam tape for even more fun dimension.
We
hope our 31 Days of Halloween SPOOKtivities are inspiring you to do
your own Halloween crafting this month, do come and share them with us
