I have been fortunate enough to be able to subscribe to the Hero Arts Kit of the Month club once again and this card was born from the June 2021 kit. I made it so I could use it for the Cat Lovers Blog Hop, something a little brighter than all the Halloween makes!
I started the card, as always, by stamping, coloring and cutting out the cat and the balloons. I used the Gina K ink pad and Zig Clean Color Markers to stamp & color. I got the background paper free from a Lawn Fawn order and I felt it matched with the happy vibe of the card so I trimmed it down to size used it to cover the white card. The sentiment was stamped on white card and die cut using the fishtailed banner. A small bit of gel pen was used to color the dots on the birthday hat, and everything was glued onto the card.
Thanks for stopping by & stay turned for more Cat Lovers Blog Hop cards! Til next time, Christi
