City Crafter Challenge "Boo-tiful"

Hello and Good Morning


We have a colour challenge going on at City Crafter this week ... chosen by our lovely Cheryl and the primary colours are Black and Cream ... It doesn't have to be a Halloween theme but that's the route I chose to go ... using some graphics from The Graphics Fairy
I made a little Halloween plaque ...


When my husband saw this he asked why the cat was upside down ... I had to explain that the cat was above the birdie and bent her head over to say "Boo!" ... You get it don't you?


Anyway I kinda see the funny side ... I remember one of  my cats doing this when we had a fish tank on a shelf ... she got on the next shelf and bent over to watch the fish ... or scare them ...


I'm not sure if you can see the black glitter on my cat and some on the birdie ... I wanted some of that blue to come through ... reminds me of a magpie ... Scary birds I think!
Our Guest Designer this week is a talented lady from the Netherlands and someone you are probably all familiar with ... Yep, it's my sweet friend Stella ... please pop over and say "Hi" and check out her lovely creation along with the rest of the DT ...
Our sponsor is Pixie Dust Paperie ... who have a fabulous new kit out this month ... Gorgeous!
Have I convinced you to join us this week? I hope so ... I love to see your creations ...
Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day

I knew straight away!!! He looks just like the cat on this blog! Because it's funny (& cute) you wouldn't have to just use it once a year! Lovely plaque anyhow! Ps- I'm a chic covered marzipan fan too! x

Of course I get it!!! There is nothing unusual about the up side down cat - mine does it all the time! lol ;) Fabulous hanging, love the lace finishes ;)) xx
