Paper Smooches – Kitty Hello

Welcome back to day 3 of my Paper Smooches – Happy Hellos series. This was totally unintentional but you all know that I have a hard time choosing which images to use from a stamp set. So I stamped and colored them all. And when the cards just started flowing, who was I to stop it??? No way!

So on to today’s fabulous card. It’s a feminine feline hello featuring some fun ink blending and more Zig coloring.

I started by coloring and cutting out my kitty image from Happy Hellos. Then I chose some distress oxide inks that matched the colors of the letters and inked the bottom 2.25 inches of a white panel. I took my new diagonal stripes stencil from Trinity Stamps and inked it up with black soot distress oxide on the edge of a card base. I trimmed .25 inches off the purple/blue panel and popped it up on the card base with foam tape. I love the contrast this gives!

I popped the kitty image up with foam squares and added some morning dew Nuvo Crystal Drops to her nose. Then I finished the card off with a scattering of Crystalized Unicorn Tears embellishments from Trinity Stamps.

This is such a pretty card and that striped contrast adds so much to a simple design. It’s so great! I’ll be using the heck out of that stencil, I know it.

I’m linking this fun card up to the HAPPY – Paper Smooches Challenge as well.

I appreciate you sharing your time with me. Have a fabulous day!
