My mom sent it for the kids on Halloween. Isn't it just adorable? Elli was super excited to get the pretty card. My Li'l man on the other hand- he was just happy it came with a coin to stick in his piggy bank ;)
The outside was created of 'punch art' using oval punches and some leaves (I'm guessing the ears were just cut by hand).
Inside she had hidden a coin behind each of the ghosts on the left hand side. You could see the 'shiny' coming through their eyes :)
Now, even though this card is for Halloween, it could so easily be switched up for Thanksgiving (part of why I still wanted to share it). Here is what I would do- skip the jack o lantern face so the cat is just peeking over a pumpkin and perhaps make the cat brown instead. Then add a pretty fall DSP instead of the purple (I would recommend one from the Color Me Autumn set). Finally, write THANKS instead of Boo on the front.
Inside you could add some leaf images and a sentiment from the For All Things stamp set. Now you're all set!
What kid in your life wouldn't like a fun card for Thanksgiving :)
Flutterby again soon!
