Day 1 of the Cat Lovers Hop

 "Feline Luminary"
by Leigh

I love making luminaries and my project today features Kitty Luna, Wiccan Moon, Tangled Vampire Cat and my new design, Kitty Pumpkin Hat.


  I constructed a coffin shaped luminary box from black cardstock and embellished it with graveyard and spider web die cut elements.  I used copper and silver metallic rub-on creme to give it the look of wrought iron.  I printed my cat designs out on a transparency sheet and coloured them with Ranger Alchohol Inks.  Vellum panels were added to enhance the colour of the printed panels and also to diffuse the tea light glow.


The above compilation photo shows each panel and how pretty the die cuts look but it looks blurry coz the printed images are casting shadows onto the vellum panels.


Here's a better view of the cat panels!


Neo is particularly fond of this one he says and gives it a 100% seal of aPURRoval😻


Looks BOOtiful in the evening glow with some of my other kitty projects😻


A view of the interior with the flameless tea light candle inside.


Materials used:
Ranger Alcohol Inks
Impression Obsession Dies
Printer Transparency
Black Cardstock
Vellum
Copper and silver rub-on antiquing creme
Double-side tape
Scotch Quick Dry Adhesive

🌹Beware the Crimson Rose Witch
🌹
Wall Art by Leigh

Urban legend says if you look deep into a mirror while holding a crimson rose on All Hallow's Eve  you will see the demonic face of the Crimson Rose Witch screaming at you from beyond!  Only those pure of heart have survived such a sighting.....do you dare to find out how pure YOUR heart is?  mwahahahaha🙀


BOO!
Did you jump?  LOL👻


For my creeptastic mirror I used The Zombie Scream and Gothic Rose.
 The Gothic frame was die cut after I printed her out and coloured her up.  I then die cut two more frames from heavy weight black cardstock and adhered them all together to make a nice substantial Gothic frame for my mirror.  I used Black Soot Distress Stain and Ink to colour the front frame black, antiqued it with gold rub-on creme.  The ruby jewels are Nuvo Crystal drops and I embellished the frame with a dark red silk bow and used black silk ribbon to make the little hanger.


Eeeeek....my Evangeline Ghastly witch is proudly showing off her ancestor!


Phew...Neo is pure of heart❤️


Materials used:
Strathmore Pencils cardstock
Black Cardstock
Fleur de Elegance Spellbinders die
Prismacolor pencils
Derwent Pastel pencils
