A Halloween Hello

 This year, I just hadn't had the time to sit down to find and make Halloween cards. Then I received this beautiful card from a fellow nurse, Arlene when I was feeling stressed and it just made my day. One day I hope to be a nurse just like her......RETIRED, but that seems so far off, lol. So I thought that I should make a new Halloween card to send her, but oh my where are my distress oxides and even worse my Halloween stamps? So I decided to use an image from Beccy's Place Toil and Trouble and the sentiment is from My Favorite Things BB witch way is the candy.  I found my box that had my twine so I added plenty of that on my tag.

See below for some picture of my adorable kitten.


Patterned Paper:  Echo Park; Sweet Shoppe

Cardstock:  Bazzil; Recollection
Stamp: Beccy's Place (see above for direct link)
Sentiment:  My Favorite Things (see above for direct link)
Ink: Memento - Tuxedo Black
Twine: Divine Twine; Darice

  3. Cats are always so "helpful" when we're trying to something that requires close attention to details and careful execution! But we love them anyway :-) Great card, Lisa! I can't believe you did this one as a "last minute" project. It's really a fun card and I'm sure your friend will love it! Thank you for sharing your card and kitty with us at Double Trouble!!! -Donna

  7. I'm sure your friend is going to love the card you created for her Lisa, it's fabulous! I love the collection of string and twine that you tied to the tag, great colours and texture. I also like the mix of papers, particularly the spider's web... that's awesome!
    Your kitten is gorgeous, she has such pretty colouring. It looks like she knows how to get your attention too!
    Cheers,
    Beccy

  13. OMGoodness, I love your new kitty! What a beauty! We lost two kitties in the past year and only have our Honeydew remaining. He's 17 so we realize he's not going to be around forever - we just enjoy each day with him and give him lots of lovin'! Your Halloween card is gorgeous!
