Take a look at this amazing sketch that Priscilla has provided for all of us. This was a fun one to work up and I know you are going to enjoy it.

Here is my card created with this sketch. I used Chelsea's Cat Girl image. Now tell me, how cute is this girl dressed in her cat costume for Halloween. She is so darling in this sweet dress holding her pumpkin to pick up her treats as she goes door to door. Just look at her legs......I tweaked this stamp and added the stripes for these cool stockings. And, Ijust couldn't resist putting all these purrfectly wonderful cats with her.

As you can see in this picture below, I stamped the image on the envelope to match this sweet card and colored it to match.
Here is how I did the inside of the card. I actually made this little girl fish net stockings in this picture. If you double click to enlarge the photo, you can see it better! I love that you have the versatility to do this with Chelsea's stamps. The other thing I loved was putting some orange glittering eyeshadow above her eyes. I was reminiscing about last year at this time when I went to the "Southern Women's Show" with my girlfriends. They had a booth where they were putting glitter eyeliner on all the woman who wanted it with a sugar solution. We all had it done and bought some. I still put mine on for parties!!!! lolThis is a view of all the luscious layers that I used in creating this card. I also hand embroidered the edge of the frame with ribbon.
Thanks for stopping in today and viewing my Midnight Madness Card. I want to invite you again to place the Midnight Madness Logo for the Blog Hop in your side bar this week, and you will have two chances for the weekly prize drawing. WOW

Mark you calendars for October 16 to October 20 for the 1st Prowling at the Midnight Madness Blog Hop....See you there!!!!!
