Halloween Cat with a Pumpkin Hat

      A Halloween cat with a pumpkin hat seems like an appropriate start for the Cat Lover's Hop this year.   This is one of those where I know nothing about the artist but it was fun to color.  This one was originally printed in grayscale so the shading and highlights came easy.


Colored w/ ProMarkers and gel pens
Cut w QuicKutz die
Matted w/ white CS scrap
"Boo" sentiment is metallic confetti
Signature bow w/ pearl
Black doily
Embossed card front

      Challenges:

     Happy Crafting and come play in the Hop!   NanaConnie

Absolutely gorgeous. Really beautiful colouring and the greyscale you've coloured over gives the image depth and texture.

Wow!! Hard to believe you colored this...grayscale or not. This is just so beautiful and the cat is full of life. The details, such as the confetti sentiment and tiny black doily are perfect finishing touches.
