Base card is purple textured cardstock that has been cut and scored. The front of the card has two pieces of scrapbook paper cut into right triangles with a black grosgrain ribbon adhered along the diagonal where they meet. The ribbon is tucked over the corners and then the panel is attached to the front of the card base.
The green paper reminds me of the wrappings on a mummy and I used it to select the coordinating striped paper.
My cat image was stamped on a white cardstock oval and the cat was filled in with a black gel pen. I sponged several inks around the cat to create the background. The edge of the oval was deckled and matted on the textured purple cardstock that was also deckled. The finished image was adhered in position.
The inside of the card is decorated to reflect the front and has the sentiment "Have a Purr-fectly Frightful Halloween!" printed on it.
I also custom made an envelope from heavy cover stock to coordinate with the card. Inks are sponged on the lower left hand corner and a black cat is stamped on it.
