Hello and welcome, crafty friends! It's my turn as hostess at JUST US GIRLS, and for Photo Week, I've picked this adorable picture of a black cat atop a pumpkin. Great for all those last minute Halloween cards or projects! But even if you don't celebrate Halloween (or you're already sick of it, wink!), you can use the colors or images as inspiration. Here's the incredibly CAS card I made:
This card is so CAS, it's making me itchy! LOL! I let some patterned paper do all the work. I was going to leave it with just that main image, but like I said, it was making me itchy. So, I used a jack-o-lantern punch and added a strip at the bottom.
So, what inspires you about that image? The black cat? The pumpkins? Those pretty red mums in the background? Why not make something and link it up at Just Us Girls! We'd love to see your take on it. While there, please visit the blogs of my teammates and our Guest Designer, Jaydee, for more ideas, and leave them some bloggy lovin!
Thanks for visiting, and I hope you have a great day!
I'd like to enter this at Naughty or Nice Challenge #32

Fabulous card, although it is very CAS I'm not too itchy there is a lot of coloured space lol.

Great image, Chris. You sure challenged us this week.
ReplyDeleteHmm, Halloween theme, black cat... nope, nothing here to inspire me. LOL! I love how Graphic 45 papers really can carry a card. But I also love the little added jack o' lanterns at the bottom! And glad you hooked up with us at Naughty or Nice Challenges!
ReplyDeleteGreat card, I love all the elements of this little beauty! Thanks for playing along over here at Naughty or Nice, Jo x
ReplyDeleteLove your comment about leaving it CAS made you itchy! So funny! This is so cute. Perfect paper for the challenge!
ReplyDeleteOh, I love the vintage look of this card. I'm guessing it's G-45, right? Super cute and great take on the photo, well done!
ReplyDeleteI love the vintage vibe you have going here! That image is so cool and I love your little row of jack-o-lanterns, too. Great choice for our challenge this week!
ReplyDeleteHey Chris! I love the vintage feel of the card! I like that you let the image do the work! If you had done any more to it you would have lost that vintage feel! I love it the way it is! Super cute! Thanks for joining us at Naughty or Nice Challenges! Cyndi, DT

ReplyDeleteMay be simple but perfect for this weeks inspiration photo. Love it when something comes together easy peasy. Makes up for the times we spend hours working on some other projects.
ReplyDeleteItchy..... haha! Love this, Chris! Such a sweet vintage image, and I really like the border you added to the bottom!
