A detour from Christmas

Now I'm  not really a halloween fan but I thought I'd take a break from Chirstmas today and I do love the colours of this weeks colour story over at The Play Date Cafe. So I had a play with alochol inks in shades of Wild Plum, Pink Sherbert,  Eggplant and Citrus to create a background.  
The stamps are all from Stamp Addicts  and I've just added a black ribbon and a cat button that's been lurking around my craft box for ever.  I'm sharing this here -

 I had fun making this as it's so unlike what I normally do...will be back to Christmas tomorrow I'm sure....hope you're enjoying the weekend..Thanks for stopping by......Esther xx
