I see that the last time I did this with stamping rather than a stencil, I was trying to use up some clumping powder. This time I saw it as a good chance to use up some of my white which, no matter how careful I am, always seems to get contaminated with flecks of gold and goodness knows what else. And, after saying last week that we all have stencil and embossing folder brick walls, and stamps, I managed to work both a stencil and an ef into this card. I used a brick wall stencil from The Order of Planners, white EP and then Embossing Antiquities Brick. I knew I wanted a little cat to stand on the wall, and I went with this one from Cool Cats (Your Next Stamp). I sponged the background with chipped sapphire and faded jeans distress, and spattered it with gold Twinkling H2Os. The moon and the little bat are from TH Gatekeeper, and I added an MFT grass border along the base of my wall. Background is embossed with a folder from Taylored Expressions, and the sentiment as Altenew Sentiment Strips 2
Will try to fill in the fields better after work;

What Gene Kelly movie was it where he sings 'gotta dance, gotta dance???' Now that is in my head the rest of the day. Your creation is a certainly a party! Love your kitty and all the fun embossing. I will look at that SCS tutorial.
