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.

Have a Wonderful Day with Roses

I love love love roses and when I saw the new Crafters Companion Vintage Rose 3D Embossing Folder – Timeless Rose I had to get it and it is just gorgeous. I have coloured the image with Copic Markers and then added a stunning frame to showcase the beautiful roses. Of course I had to add some cute butterflies made from Memory Box dies that I have had for many years. I really love this sentiment as it is so versatile and can be used for so many different occasions.

My Project

I have created a side folding 5″ x 7″ card base out of white cardstock. I then cut a piece of X-Press It paper 4 3/4″ x 6 3/4″ and embossed it using the Timeless Rose embossing folder. I coloured the roses and background with Copic markers and adhered it to the card front.

I cut a piece of white cardstock 5″ x 7″ and die cut the frame using the Nos. 3 and 4 dies from the Heartfelt Creations Fancy Classic Oval Dies. I wanted to keep the decorative frame see through so I cut a piece of acetate 4 3/4″ x 6 3/4″ and adhered it behind the whole frame. I then added the decorative frame to the acetate inside the outer frame and cut the inner oval out using scissors (I found it much easier doing it that way). To complete the decorative frame I have die cut the outer decorative frame from gold cardstock and added it to the frame as shown. The frame was then added to the front of the card with foam strips.

I heat embossed the sentiment from the Heartfelt Creations Heartfelt Sentiments on black cardstock using gold embossing powder. I then die cut the sentiment out using a die from the Altenew Featured Sentiments Die Set and added it to the front of the roses with foam strips.

I die cut the butterflies out using Lawn Fawn Pearlescent Paper and Heartfelt Creations Luxe Gold Cardstock. These were assembled and added to the card front.

To finish I have added gold pearls around the frame.
