Created this birthday card using Cricut cartridge Pixar Cars to make the shaped McQueen card by welding the shadow images together with Gypsy and the layers. There are small detail pieces to the images on the cartridge and so mine is a first attempt and not perfect but will be appreciated by the receiver nonetheless. Added glossy accents to the eyes & headlights. Stamped a sentiment with 2 different stamps on inside of card.

Yes, the title & card is for Halloween. When I saw Cuttin' & Stampin' Monster challenge I immediately thought of Halloween. Found it a bit difficult since I mostly create girl things unless you count the Pirate theme things and other masculine things I create.
Had won the Your Next Stamp set (my artsy stamp) some time ago & this is the first time using. Made this Clean & Simple CAS cute Halloween card heat embossing the monster with Blaze embossing powder that I think it is first time using and then stamping the sentiment in black ink.
Saw that there was some stray embossing powder that did not get removed before heat embossing & some smudginess in stamping the sentiment but I felt that it added to the edgy monster look. Added some twine.
Supplies List
embossing: Recollections Blaze emb powder
ink: VersaFine Onyx Black, VersaMark
paper: cardstock - Kraft
stamp: Your Next Stamp - my artsy stamp, won this some time ago & 1st time using
tool: Marvy heat
twine: black/white
