Monster Hello

I got my new Mini Monsters Cartridge this week and have been playing with it a lot!  There are many Halloween type cuts on this cartridge, but I also like it for the little kid type fun cuts.  I did this Monster Hello..... Monster Smile..... Monster Hugs card which will be really good for a kid.  Counts for one of my new folds for a card too!!

Mini Monsters cut at 2"
Tags cut at 3"
Lyrical Letters cut at 1.5"
Stash papers
Distressed with Cat Eye liquid chalks
Faux stitching with Sig gel pens.

Cut the front of a regular card by slicing it about halfway down.  Then taking the remainder slice to make the other sideways pocket which formed two pockets on the front of the card.  The tags are actually the tombstones on the Mini Monsters cartridge, punched a hole, added the ribbon and the heart brads.   Covered the back with the coordinating paper and a rounded rectangle and wah lah, a monster card, with a monster hello, a monster smile and monster hugs!
