A Sleepy Kitty Card
by Janet Katz

 

When I first saw the Poppystamps Whittle Adorable Kitty Kit I knew exactly who I was going to make my creations for. Two young women who are very dear to me both have July birthdays, and own and love cats.

 

My first card started with the “cat tree” cat. I die cut this cutie from white cardstock and used alcohol ink markers to color it with gray and tan stripes to resemble a particular kitty I know. Next, I cut the “cat tree” tube and center from beige and navy blue cardstock. I used alcohol ink markers again to provide a shadow beneath the cat. I used the other portion of the navy blue tube to make a circle to go behind the image. I punched a larger circle out of some blush colored cardstock.

 

 

I used a little pink patterned paper over some beige and black striped paper to provide a background and a band across the card front. Before I adhered anything, I used one of the stamps included with the kit to stamp paw prints across the card in the same blush color as the cardstock. Lastly, I stamped the “You’re purrfect” sentiment (also comes with the kit) in embossing ink on black cardstock and heat embossed with white detail powder. I adhered everything, putting the blush and navy circles down first, and then the band. Next, I adhered the tube, then adhered the cat with foam adhesive. I added the sentiment with foam adhesive also. Finally, I added some navy blue enamel dots to carry the color around the card.

 

 

On the 17th, I will show you another fun cat card you can make with this super cute Kitty Kit.
