Last Cat Card


I am entering a final card into the Cat Lovers Blog Hop
by Her Peaceful Garden.
I have had a whole bunch of fun creating these cards for the hop!

My card for today features a stamp set from My Favorite Things called: Cat-titude
This is one of my favourite stamp sets because my daughter loves cats and the sayings are so cute!!

 Today is a smaller card, a 4 1/2 x 4 1/2 size and I stamped the kitty with Memento ink on Copic paper and coloured it in with Copic markers. I then cut the design out with some round dies and popped it up with some foam tape on the card. Then added some ribbon on the side. 

This is a hop to celebrate cats of all sizes and shapes, since National Cat Day is October 29th.  Prizes will be awarded to randomly-drawn participants among those who link up a cat-themed project and among those who visit the linked projects and leave a comment.  
This hop runs from October 23rd until the 28th and if you join in, you could win a great prize!!
Thanks for taking the time to look!

Purrfect!!

Good Morning! I  am having fun creating with my Zig Clean Color Markers lately
and wanted to share my latest card!
I used a stamp set from Neat and Tangled called Kittys Favorite Things for this card and coloured the images with my Zigs on Distress paper. I then layered the images onto some textured cardstock, heat embossed the banner and voila!

Thanks for looking!

Cat Lovers Blog Hop!
A hop to celebrate cats of all sizes and shapes, since National Cat Day is October 29th.  Prizes will be awarded to randomly-drawn participants among those who link up a cat-themed project and among those who visit the linked projects and leave a comment.

I started by embossing the image and sentiment using the Black Olive Premium Dye Ink from YNS and then using Clear embossing powder over it. Second, I watercoloured this image using my Zig Clean Color Markers on watercolour paper. I cut the image out using the Stitched Scalloped Rectangle Dies and then layered it over some of the paper from the Winter Plaid Paper Collection.

Things are Magical at YNS!

Here at YNS we are challenged each month to create something new using a specific theme!
For the month of OCTOBER our Design Team Dare is: Magical!

Our eldest daughter had a LOVE of Ponies when she was little and this stamp set reminds me of her every time I make something with it!
The Ponies were magical to her and even though she is going to be 16, I love making her
things with her beloved Ponies!
I coloured the Ponies from the set called: Magical Ponies
with Copic markers and cut them out using the matching dies.
Then I added some of our sparkly gumdrops to the front!

Go to the YNS Blog to see what the other DT's have made for you,
comment and you could win a stamp set of your choice!

Thanks,
Sue
