his was a cute card I found on a www.splitcoaststampers.com weekly tutorial and had to share with you!
Project Recipe
Cut black cardstock base 8.5"×5.5" and score at 4.25" ( in half). Cut add't piece of black cardstock 3.75" x5"
Cut 2 pieces of white cardstock measuring 4.0"x5.25" (one piece for inside layer and another for front of card.
Cut 3" circle from silver glitter paper.
1.Use spooky cat punch to punch a cat shape out of the bottom of glitter circle, align so your punch is a full cat and the tail shows in the cut out but doesn't leave any glitter paper at bottom of circle (see photo). You can use the glitter cat for another project or add to the inside of card.
2. Position the siver punched circle on the top if the black cardstick but don't adhere it yet, just use it to help you decide where to stamp the stars.
3. Ink up the long Star Swirl image from Star of Night with silver Encore ink and stamp on the upper left corner of the top layer of black 3.75" x 5" cardstock to give a "star shower" effect (see finished card) so that it spans the top left corner but doesn't show through the punched out cat shape. (If it does show you can cover it up by punching out another cat out of black scrap paper to insert in the punched space).
4. Use silver encore ink to stamp Happy Halloween from the Spooky Cat stsmp set.
5. Adhere the silver glitter circle to the single black layer partially covering the stars if necessary.
6. Adhere the the finished top layer to the single white sheet.
7. Attach the black and white panel to the folded black cardstock.
8. Stamp desired Halloween greeting to 2nd single piece of white cardstock and attach to inside of card.
Using the Spooky Cat punch and 3" circle of glimmer paper (or bright yellow/orange cardstock), punch the cat shape out of the bottom of the circle so his feet and tail imprints show but there is no glimmer paper remaining at the bottom of the circle. This allows the cat to appear to be floating in the air in front of the moon.
