The Cat's Pajamas Stamps September New Release and Blog Hop

It's time for the spooktacular release from The Cat's Pajamas Stamps!  This months release is perfect to jumpstart your holiday project making with a little Autumn and a little Christmas!  If you hopped over here from the fabulous Brenda's blog, you are in the right place. 

My first project to share with you is a votive holder made from a gift bag.  In order to achieve the cut out on just one side of the bag, I took it apart carefully to die cut the desired side and then put the bag back together again.

I used the new Round Tree die utilizing only the inset of the two pieces.  Once that was cut, I placed a piece of vellum to the backside to give it a subdued glow with the votive.  For a finishing touch, I cut out and popped up the cat from the new Portrait of Mew which I heat embossed a mixture of sparkle and Platinum.

For my card, I am using the new Better Not Pout set and the frame from the die set of Portrait of Mew.

I colored in the image with Copics before fussy cutting him out to be popped up over the strip of patterned paper and the TCP eyelet border cut out. I stamped the sentiment in the frame and popped up the frame cut out. The card with finished with a few enamel drops.

I hope you all had a great chance to see all the fun sneaky peeks this week and have your list ready to get all your favorites! Be sure to hop on over the to talented Lynn to see her awesome projects!
