Always thinking of Mew

Hiya and happy Wednesday! I made this card today to play along in the MyFavoriteThings Sketch Challenge. I used the adorable I Knead You set from MyFavoriteThings along with the Coordinating Dies. I colored kitty with my Prismacolor colored pencils. I used the little rounded square from the 4x4 Journal Die & More set from MyCreativeTime. I stamped the sky on it with the Cartoon Cloud Background from MyCreativeTime. I used mint julep Hero Arts shadow ink for the sky, and lime green shadow ink for the grass. For the greeting I used the "mew" from the I Knead You set and the "always thinking of" is from the new Tweet Me set from MyCreativeTime. The greeting is on the banner from the Vintage Labels set from MyCreativeTime. I embossed the bottom of the panel with a dots folder, and added two embossed lines with my scoring board at the top. I stamped the Candy Stripe Background from PeachyKeenStamps with mint julep ink...btw this stamp is one off my all time faves and is only 7 bucks!!! Better get it before it's gone! :)

I hope you're having a relaxing evening.

Hang in there and Meow Cards

Hello! Today's Stretch Your Dies class at OnlineCardClasses was about using small dies. So I got out my Stitched Hexy Dies from MyCreativeTime. For this card I started by watercoloring my panel with mustard seed, ripe persimmon, and picked raspberry Distress Inks. I cut out the hexagons with the Stitched Hexy Dies. Then I heat embossed the awesome Hexy Background from MyCreativeTime with gold embossing powder on vellum. Then I used that to back my hexagons to make little shakers. The greeting is from the new Tweet Me set from MyCreativeTime, and will be available for purchase tomorrow. :) Here is the other card I made using the leftover hexagons...

I gold embossed the kitty from the I Knead You set by MyFavoriteThings. It was cut out with the coordinating I Knead You Dies. The greeting is also from the I Knead You set. 

I hope you've had a great day.

You're purr-fect!

Hello! As soon as I saw the fabulous new I Knead You set from My Favorite Things I knew I wanted to make this card! :) I used the awesome Stitched Window Dies And Accessories from MyCreativeTime for the window and shelf. I sandwiched acetate in the window for the "glass". I colored the sweet kitty from the I Knead You set with my Prismacolor colored pencils. The beauty part of this guy is that he also has a backside stamp! SO CUTE! So I used both the I Knead You Stamps and I Knead You Dies to make this card. And here is the inside...

Eek! I wub his kitty backside! SO CUTE! And because I wanted to keep the card pretty on the inside {so nothing could be seen through the window} I made a "flap" inside so I can flip it up and write in there. The greeting on the front is from the You Had Me At Meow set from MyCreativeTime. 

Happy almost Friday! :)

p.s. As I type this, my orange kitty Simba is in the window. :)
