I had fun
making this cute card as my first entry at the 2019 Cat Lovers Blog hosted by aherpeacefulgarden.blogspot.com.
It features a digi named “Wolfie” from Whimsie Doodles, a company that sadly
closed its doors a while ago. I colored Wolfie with Spectrum
Noir markers and a Sakura Gelly
Roll white gel pen. I printed off and colored an extra image of his treat bag with I added with foam tape to add some depth to the image. The fun Happy Halloween sentiment on the front is a freebie from BirdsCards. The inside Trick or Treat sentiment is a freebie from LoveSVG. I'm entering this card into several
challenges including Outlawz Tuesday Color Challenge (Orange plus yellow and green
and the twist is candy!)
PS I appreciate that several people commented that the digi's name confused them. Although he is name dis "Wolfie" (I assume for Wolf man?) I thought he looked more like a lion with his mane and tail, so I colored him accordingly. And, that is also why I entered him into the Cat Lovers Hop! I hope he qualifies? If not, that's okay. In either case, he is a cutie!

My final
card this posting features a beautiful wood mound set of rose stamps from
Rubber Stampede. (I purchased them in the late 1990s after seeing the amazing
stamp artist, Dee Gruenig, create
with them.) Created a background for the stamped
rose with a scrap of vintage sheet music (inherited from my hubby's grandmother,
who was a church choir director in the 1940s), a handmade tag with a frilly
rectangle created with a set of Martha Stewart Punch Around The Page- Swirling
Lace Punch Set (includes both a border and corner punch. This is what you can
create when you use both!) The front sentiment is one that I removed from it’s wood
mount long ago (I think it might be Hero Arts or PSX?) and the
“With Love at Christmas” sentiment on the inside is a freebie from
Beccy’s Place. Their is a sprig of holly on the original . I layered a rose bloom atop that to match the front of the card. But I wanted you to see the orginal freebie, so posted a copy of the original freebie, adding a watermark. Please visit Beccy's Place to download the original. (BTW- Beccy offers a ton of free digis that you can download from her
site. Stop in here
to check them out!) I'm entering this card into several challenges including Bugaboo BINGO (diagonal from the upper left- Flower, Players Choice- I select tag, and Ribbon.)

DeleteLove all your cards here.
ReplyDeleteso lovely projects!
ReplyDeleteThis card is really darling, Kathy! Love how you added dimension with the treat bag. Is "Wolfie" actually a cat dressed as a wolf for Halloween? lol
ReplyDeleteWell...it might be named Wolfie, but I am going to say it looks like a lion or some fang-some sort of big cat, so it qualifies for the Cat Hop! :)
ReplyDeleteFab collection of cards.
Thanks so much for playing along in the #2019CatLoversHop!!

I was a little confused by the Wolfie digi name, as I'm assuming the costume is a wolf costume...? However, that tail looks suspiciously cat-like and I love the coloring and quirky fun image!
ReplyDeleteWonderful coloring. Love all your cards.
