And, yes, that beautiful kitty in the middle picture is Harley, one of Zoe's furbabies :)
If you know me at all, you know I ADORE cats. I actually love all animals, but, cats own me, so I have a soft spot in my heart for them. And being I haven't made anything in months, I went to my comfort zone, my cat stamps. What's better than cats? Snarky cats! Here is my project:
What I Used to Make this Card:
White Cardstock
Black Cardstock
Pop Dots
Grumpy Cat Rubber Stamp (SO old - and I didn't mark the manufacturer - sorry!)
"You know it was a good day if you didn't. . ." - Inkadinkadoo, 99176 DD (retired but available)
Washi Tape
I started with stamping my image directly on the card which is fairly nervy for me - I am always afraid I'm going to muck up a good piece of cardstock - but I got the image fairly straight.
Confession time (it's been SO long you guys!) I recently found this site called Peach Paperie (part of the Peachy Cheap websites) and I ordered a bunch of $1 washi tapes and some cool wooden icon sets. Then I realized that washi tapes had become something (another thing!!) I collect but don't use. I even got a cute little washi tape holder. So I decided to use some of the new tape I bought and I sort of grounded the cat on the bottom strip, added a top strip for some balance. I am saying it here, publicly, that I vow to use my washi tape (ha ha ha - we'll see)!
Finally, I stamped my sentiment on white card, mounted that on some black card and pop dotted that to the card. Hmmm, the more I look at that tape, the more I like it.
We would LOVE you to join us at Always Use Rubber - the challenges are 2 weeks long, lots of time to play and there will be guest designers, top 3 and winners! I urge you to check out our rules page and dig out those wonderful rubber stamps! Thanks ~ Christi
