Kia ora Koutou
I was really excited to be able to purchase the Cattitude Stamp and Die set along with the Cat Tree House die set from Waffle Flower in time for my daughter’s birthday. She loves cats and has got two kittens so this set was perfect. I did struggle with this card as it is totally outside my comfort zone but my daughter loved it. I used the Honey Bee Stamps 3D Embossing Folder – Burlap to create the carpet effect and I wasn’t sure what to put behind the cat tree so I went with using a stencil to create a rainbow background and then I embossed it with an embossing folder from Marianne Designs – DF3424. The colourful background really made the cat tree and cats stand out a lot. I was not confident colouring the cats with Copics so just went for a black silhouette and it looked very cool. I also added a quirky cat from the Amazing Paper Grace Spooky Boo Die set as my daughter loves that quirkyness. The finished card ended up being 5″ x 6″ which I felt was a more balanced composition.
