    I love November because it is the beginning of the winter holiday season, plus it means that it’s time for Beccy’s Place Annual Month of Holiday Cards Challenge! This is the 13th year that Beccy’s been offering all kinds of fun on her blog. The front of my card features a spooky Halloween image and sentiment from Beccy's digi set named "Stack of Jacks." The inside features a sentiment I created on my computer that is an attempt at humor, since there is no way I'm touching any of those scary lookin' punkins!!

    My final card for this post is another calico cat card, which helps me to use up a handful of festive scraps! Once again, I used a template that I had created to make a calico cat-shaped Easter card in March. (You can find a photo of that pastel card, the template for two different-sized cards, and learn a bit more about making the card HERE.) 

    It just took a bit of time, a few sentiments, and a bit of coloring (the bow, sentiment tag, and stitching with my trusty white gel pen, to finish this beauty! 

 

Supplies: 

·   5x7 inch Calico cat Template (made by Moi!)
