Type O Negative - Halloween in Heaven

Have a Ball(of yarn)!

I made this card using Repeat Impressions sketch and cat stamp. I embossed the image with black glitter embossing powder. I colored the cat and yarn with Copics. I inked the edges of the square with red ink. The rhinestones I used are from my Martha Stewart stash.
This card reads "Have a ball!" I plan to give this to a girlfriend of mine for her August birthday. She adopted 2 cats this year- first cats she ever had- she loves them!
I plan to enter this card in the following challenges:

Skull Appreciation Day Blog Hop- Skull self portrait

Read for a chance to win new large Clear Stamping blocks from www.ScrappingBeauty.com!

If you know me personally you know that I may not be the average person. (then again who is?) Anyway, I described myself as living in the light but admiring the dark. I'm ambidextrous. Who cares right? Well, I think that my being neither left or right side dominant causes me to be fully of complexities. For instance, I think most would describe my personality as being sunny and bright. Yet, my favorite holiday is Halloween. I love the spooky, dark and scary. Things that go bump in the night make me the happiest.
I drew this skull free hand then colored it in with tattered angels glam and Tombow markers. I cut it out and attached it to the top of a wood box I painted with Tattered Angels glimmer mist- black gold and candy apple red.
In the eyes are what I like to see- one of my favorite animals- bats! I have 2 small browns and one bigbrown that frequent my yard in the summer. I love watching them zip around at night! Rainbows are a favorite like most too bc I love color! Even in my gothis industrial phase in my twenties- my wardrobe was comprised of black (the norm) but still infused with color. The teeth are big in this pic bc I like my teeth- I remembered some of the little kids in the 2-6 yr old ward at an emergency facility I used to work at commenting on my teeth. Very funny bc ppl pay a lot of $ now to get their teeth like mine. lol I also like the look of spider webs- we have a ton here. I leave them up bc they help control the pest population and the look of them are perfect for our big old house. They add drama and charm.

Enjoy the the Skull Appreciation Day hop today!
