Who Let the Dog (and CAT!) Out???

 I recently purchased these wonderful cat and dog Halloween ghost dies and wanted to use them right away before filing them away!

Aren't these dog and cat ghosts a riot?!!


They are called Happy Haunting Cat Die and Happy Haunting Dog Die from Waffle Flower.
I die cut the ghosts out of white hammered paper to give them texture.  The goblin, spider and pumpkin face are cut from Black Glitter Paper. 
  
I embossed the black panel with an old dots EF from Darice and die cut the framing with a scallop frame die from Amazon. 
 
The dog and cat are up on foam dots as well as the body of the spider EEK!  I put one big silver dot on his head so he'd show up AND it made him even spookier...

Your ghost cat and dog are just too much fun, especially in the way you've showcased them here as the stars of the stage. And what a stage you've created for them with the embossed background, spider and fancy frame. The jack o' lantern treat bucket, complete with glittery eyes and a goblin, just adds to the 'spooky' scene. Love this!

Love the dog and cat ghosts - I've never seen them before. If I had any need of Halloween cards, I'd be buying them for sure! Great idea to use hammered cs to give them texture. You finished the card off perfectly with the pumpkin and little goblin!
