    Last week I posted a front-n-back cat image from “Art Impressions.” This week I’m posting another pair of AI cat stamps, that again  provide a glimpse of  both sides of the little feline. I thought the computer-generated sentiment worked perfectly with the cat image. So fun! (You can see an adorable Spring/Easter card made with this set on my blog HERE. It’s one of my favorite kitty cards!)

    The son of a dear friend from high school was recently married and since I know he loves Halloween, I just had to make a card featuring one of my favorite Frank & Bride digi images for the happy couple. (Several years ago I used this fun Dr Digi image on a Valentines Day, I mean a “Valensteins Day” card! You can see and read about it on my blog HERE.)

    I’m entering my card into several challenges including Outlawz Festive Friday: Fancy Fold and Crafty Cats: More Than One Fold (I made a tri-fold card, so ghoulish newlyweds fill the center card panel, yet peek out of circle frame on the card front), Park Hopping: My Happy Place (I have one Halloween theme park on my bucket list-Hersheypark Halloween. Two words-Free Chocolate!), Papercraft Challenges: Carneval (I did a bit of research and found that Frankenstein was a hit at carnival sideshows back in the 193o’s. You can read about it HERE.)  

Supplies: 

·   Digi- Dr Digi (Made for Each Other)

·   Colored with Spectrum Noir Classique markers, Sakura Gelly Roll white & silver gel pens

·   Sentiments- Computer Generated

·   “ZAP” embellishment on inside sentiment is from a Dr Digi set  (Comic Sentiments).
