Day 6 of 31 Days of Halloween
 
"Count Catula"
 Loveleigh Kitty Card
by Val
 
 Count Catula strikes again on LeighSBDesigner Val's FANGtastic make for Day 6 of our 31 Days of Halloween SPOOKtivities today!
 
 
This handsome vampire cat and matching senti are from my new CAToWeen 2024 Loveleigh Kitties Halloween Collection and a small bat from my Gothic Nightmare Catcher SVG Cutz set flew in to join the SPOOKtivites too.
 
 
 
Val resized Count Catula Loveleigh Kitty a smidge taller than 7 inches and printed him out.  She then coloured him up with Promarkers and added white gel pen details then fussy cut him out with scissors leaving a narrow white border around him.  Doesn't he looking PURRtastic in his green cloak and purple waist coat!
 

 
The "Count Catula" senti is 1 of 4 digi stamp sentiments included in the Count Catula Senties set.  Val printed the senti out via Silhouette Studio and fussy cut it out using her Silhouette Portrait 3 electronic cutting machine.  She then matted it onto black cardstock and cut out the mat with scissors.
 
 
Val made a 5 x 7 inch side fold card from black cardstock and used a Crafter's Companion Vintage Halloween spiderweb edgeable die to die cut the design down the right side of the card front.  She then adhered lime green cardstock behind the design and cut the mat edge to match.
 
 
Next she cut a panel from lime green spiderweb patterned paper and adhered it to the card front with a tape runner.   She then adhered Count Catula to the card with foam tape and adhered the senti in place with glue.
 
 
The little bat cut from black cardstock from my Gothic Nightmare Catcher SVG Cutz set completes her card.

Day 1 of 31 Days of Halloween
 
"Count Catula"
Loveleigh Kitty Slimline Book Panel
by Leigh

 
I'm kicking off Day 1 of our 31 Days of Halloween SPOOKtivities with my PURRtastic "Count Catula" Slimline book panel featuring a Loveleigh Kitty and matching senti from my new CAToWeen Loveleigh Kitties Halloween 2024 Collection and my wicked awesome FUNdamental Foundations Slimline Coffins Nesting SVG Cutz set for electronic cutting machines.
 

 
 Count Catula Loveleigh Kitty is the star vampire kitty of today's make.
 
 
 
I coloured him digitally in Adobe Fresco, printed him out in all his colourful glory and then fussy cut him out with scissors leaving a narrow white border that makes him pop nicely against the background papers.  Isn't he magnificently adorable in his traditional red vampire cloak, yellow bow tie and a touch of non-traditional Halloween blue for his waist coat that's embellished with gold bat shaped buttons!
 
 
My 31 Days of Halloween makes are going in a book I'm making so I started out with a slimline 4" x 9" book panel I made from heavy weight black cardstock.  Count Catula needed a batty background so I cut a panel 1/8 inch smaller from a sheet of Recollections "Moonlit Manor" paper and edged it with Spectrum Noir Midas Gold pigment ink for a touch of distressed metallic elegance.  I then adhered the batty background to the black panel with glue.
 
 
 
For the mat and layered Coffin panels I used my SPOOKtacular FUNdamental Foundations Slimline Coffins Nesting SVG Cutz set for electronic cutting machines.  The set includes 7 concentric slimline coffin mats and layers for making slimline cards, tags and more!

 
I used the 3 largest coffin SVG Cutz to create my mat and layered coffin background and cut them out with my Silhouette Cameo 5 electronic cutting machine and the awesome electrostatic mat.
 

I cut the largest and smallest coffins from a sheet of Crafter's Companion Vintage Halloween cardstock in shades of blue that PURRfectly matches Count Catula's blue waist coat and the middle coffin from black cardstock.  I edged all the coffin panels with Spectrum Noir Midas Gold pigment ink for even more distressed metallic elegance.
 
 
I adhered the black coffin directly onto the large blue coffin panel and mounted those onto the slimline book panel with glue.  I then adhered the top blue coffin panel and Count Catula kitty in place with black foam tape for lots of FURtastic dimension.
 
 
The finishing touch is the Count Catula sentie from my new matching Count Catula Senties set of 4 digi stamp sentiments.  I opened the sentiment in Adobe Photoshop and switched the colours around for the fun white text on a black background look and fussy cut the sentiment out with scissors.  I then mounted the senti to the panel with black foam tape.
 

 
Count Catula is looking splendid on my first make for 31 Days of Halloween 2024, I hope he's inspired you to start your Halloween crafting and play in our 14th annual 31 Days of Halloween Hop!  Gather your crafty friends and play along with your own Halloween makes in our Haunt Hop Linky Party, see the Main Hop Post for all the Hop details and linky! 
 
All LeighSBDesigns makes will be linked in the Haunt Hop Linky Party too for easy hopping!
