One Cool Cat

Well, I was not sure if I should be posting this or not today ~ but what the heck!

I wanted to make a birthday card for a special girl who's turning 12 this weekend and I wanted something kinda girly so I had to pull out this set. My DD got this set when she was about that age so I thought that it had to work. And yes, if you notice I did not use pencils. I'm so proud of me!

The set is called Cool Cat and I colored it with my SU markers directly on the rubber. I used my stamp-a-ma-jig to make sure that everything would work out just right. Of course I had to go to my LSS and buy some paper for the occasion too, I mean I could not use any paper that was just laying around you know. The paper is from Creative Imaginations, and I just loved the colors.

I started with a Gable Green card and I layered on the DP to the base. The next piece I sponged Pink Passion ink around it first then tied a length of white ribbon around it. I took the main image and lightly sponged Pink Passion in around that then layered it on to a piece of Pixie Pink cs then on to another piece of Gable Green cs. I then stamped the word birthday from the Happy Everything set in Pink Passion ink and punched it out with my tab punch and adhered it to the top right corner behind the image panel. I layered that whole panel on to the card with pop dots for some dimension.

I made some photo corners with the scraps and placed those on to the card. On top of the photo corners I glued a couple of buttons to give it some more umph. Once I finished I added some stickles for a bit of a punch ~ what young girl does not like glitter? Heck, what older girl does not like glitter!!

And now it's in the mail! I hope she likes it ~ I hope you all like it!!
