Mad About You

Hey everybody! Happy Monday! I hope you had a great weekend! It’ll soon be Halloween and I’m still playing with scary cats and bats! I’m delighted to be back up on the Prickley Pear Stamps blog today with a fun Halloween card featuring the Cheshire-type cat in the Scary Cats 2 stamp set! This was such a fun and easy card to put together, and would be a great design to mass-produce if you send out a lot of Halloween Cards, and especially if you’re an Alice in Wonderland fan! ;)

I cut a standard A2 size top-folding card base from Neenah Classic Crest Solar White cardstock and a layering panel from Keep It Simple Ruby 12×12 Collection Pack. A striped pattern to match the cat was just the ticket! I rounded the bottom right corner on both the card base and layering panel, and then stamped the cat from the Scary Cats 2 stamp set on Solar White. I cut him at an angle with an oval die and then cut a slightly larger oval to offset behind the cat. I stamped the sentiment (from the same stamp set) and added several black enamel dots to complete the card.
