Throwback Thursday Challenge

The challenge this week at My Creative Time is to use an older cartridge with a card feature. The card must be Halloween themed. This was the perfect opportunity to use my Hello Kitty Greetings cartridge. I have been wanting to use this cut for a while. Hello Kitty is so cute with her little cape! I just love how she turned out. I decided against using a sentiment stamp on the outside because I thought it would detract from her adorable outfit.
I cut the base card in Kraft colored cardstock at 5". Then I used the blackout feature to layer on top of that because the card feature didn't cut one side of her whiskers. I cut out the cape freehand because I didn't like it just black. It didn't really look like a cape to me. I used glossy accents on her eyes. They will dry clear and give her some dimension.
The patterned paper is from DCWV Midnight Spell. This is the most awesome Halloween stack ever! So many glittered, embossed or foiled pages and such amazing colors. I'm going to really miss this stack when it's finished.
