Hey there friends ! We are celebrating the latest release from Simon Says Stamp with a blog hop filled with inspiration! Plus, we have a little TREAT for you!
Follow the directions in the graphic above to get your FREE GIFT! ( funny note- that’s my card in the picture that you can create with the FREE GIFT!)
Now for the inspiration …..
Although I am making Christmas cards right now, I am not ready to move on from Halloween so I want to sneak a few more in.
I’m starting with this adorable Halloween Cat wafer die. I created three windows with it using Black cardstock. I made sure to turn it in different directions for more interest.
Using the window panel as a guide, I ink blended Lemonade and Sherbet ink with my blending brushes.
I popped up the black panel with foam tape and added over the blended background.
Simon Says Stamp offers a great variety pack of cardstock and I used that to create the hats for the cats, alternating between different Halloween colors for the band on the hat. I also added stickles for sparkle!
I needed a smaller sentiment that wouldn’t overpower my images and found one of the Trick or Treat stamp set which is an older stamp set but sure came in handy!
I also used some stars from the Trick or Treat Stamp/Die set to add around my windows. So fun and totally giving all the Halloween vibes !
Hope you like it and are inspired to try and create a window panel like this .

Oh my gosh, that is the cutest design! I love all the bright colors against the black background- the cats really pop!
Super cute Haloween card. LOVE the cats, love the colors!
The cats are so cute. Luv the arrangement & colors.
Love the cats!! Such a great Halloween card !! Love your colors. Thanks so much for sharing.
This card is so very fun. I love the shading of yellow behind the cats. I now want to go off and make cute cards like this one.
Such a fun Halloween card. Love the cats.
Mindy, your card is darling. Those little kitties seem to having so much fun. I like your coloring and the Halloween hats are perfect with a little festive bling. I can also see this whole card switching to Christmas by changing the hats to red with a white bling, and switching the background from black to white or silver. Even making some changes and making a Birthday card or anything. LOL. So versatile and creative. Thank you for sharing. Happy Halloween… Tick-or-Treat. :o)
This is so cute. Always love your inspiration!
Cute card, this die is cute for all seasons. Happy Halloween.
