Creating the Background

To set the spooky scene, I began by ink blending the night sky using Distress Oxide Inks in Black Soot and Prize Ribbon, followed by spritzing with Distress Spritz - Uncharted Mariner to give the sky that eerie, starry texture. The moonlight was added with a circle die cut from the Sweet Stacks: Circles Dies and a layer of vellum, which diffuses the light beautifully when the card is illuminated.

Light-Up Feature

To bring the card to life, I incorporated an EZ-Light - 3-Light Strand. This was easily hidden behind the vellum circle to give that perfect glowing moon effect. When you press on the pumpkin, the card lights up, making it an enchanting surprise for the recipient!

The Main Elements

The focal point of the card is the adorable black cat, crafted with the Lovely Layers: Scaredy Cat Dies. I love how the die cuts give dimension to the cat, making it pop off the card. I paired it with a vibrant pumpkin and I added shading to using detail blending brushes

The bat flying above adds a playful touch, while the witch's hat on the cat (cut from the Sweet & Spooky Paper Pad) and the striped background panel from the same collection add coordinating patterns and colors, tying the design together.

Finishing Touches

For a little extra sparkle, I used both the Fall Is In The Air Gem Stickers and Sweet & Spooky Gem Stickers to add some extra details to the background. I also couldn’t resist adding highlights using a White Gelly Roller Pen for that extra pop.

The sentiment, "Happy Meowloween!" from the Sweet Halloween Stamps, finishes the card on a playful note.
