You're One Crazy Cat - Guest Designer for Crazy For Cats

Back awhile ago I was invited as Guest Designer for Crazy for Cats Challenge "Anything Goes" with the choice of March through June challenges ... how time flies.  Missed submitting the last three months so my card is for the June Challenge "Anything Goes Cat".  

Looked through my stash for cat/kitten scrapping supplies and found this cute Halloween stamp set.  Back a month ago my daughter invited me to their cabin for a scrapping retreat and we set aside one day to do gel press backgrounds and this was the perfect background for a Halloween card.  Decided a mini-slimline card would be perfect for the image.  Gel print background was backed with a black and white magical design paper and adhered to card base.   




Stamped cat on white cardstock, colored with Copic brush pens, fussy cut and  adhered to background with thin foam tape.  Stamped the witch's hat on the same background pattern and fussy-cut to be placed on cat's head with regular foam tape for more dimension.  Sentiments were stamped with black on top and bottom corners and a few cute bats were stamped on the upper right-hand corner. 

On the inside of the card added a border along the right, stamped cat peeking behind the border and added the witch hat and bat in the corner.
