Pencil was a house cat when the kids adopted her years ago, and has been a house cat ever since. Her experience with the Great Outdoors when she slipped through the door with the dogs was terrifying for all. She managed to weather the night safely and was back at home at dinnertime the next day, though very unsettled.

To make this layout, I free-hand blended my photo into the Artsy Paper using my favorite blending Brushes; for more depth and texture, I added the text and wordArt, then piled on the pumpkins, using layers from them to soften my blended edges in the blanket area. I recolored the wordART and gave it a stroke to make it pop. I finished with the Script Tease Overlay, recolored, duplicated and blended with Overlay mode to deepen. There were some fun artstrokes in the second part of the Artplay Palette, so I added them as well as some other transfers/overlays.
