K is for Kitten

The Craft Barns latest Alpha/Dictionary challenge letter is K and I have chosen to do the word Kitten.

The  background of my postcard is a gelli print. The mice were stamped onto the card and coloured with felt tips. The paw prints and meow were stamped onto the card, I stamped the kitten and wool onto white card, coloured them with felt tip and cut them out. I stamped the K and added the dictionary definition.

Stamps used.
Craft Uk - kitten, wool and mice.
Hero Arts - paw prints.

Thank you for looking.

SPA - Cats

Good morning everyone, I hope you are all well and are having a good weekend.

This weeks Sunday Postcard Art challenge theme is Cats.

All the images were stamped onto tissue paper and glued to the gelli print background, the paw prints were stamped onto the card. I covered the card with Mod Podge and when it was dry used Faber Castel pitt pens to  colour parts of the cat. I also used a pen to blend the tissue paper into the background.

Stamps used.
Stamps Away - Tiddles the cat.
Craft UK - fish skeletons and tins, paw print and meow.
I don't know who made the purr.

Thank you for looking, have a lovely Sunday.

Inchie ATCs

I'd like to share with you today some ATCs that I made earlier in the year. They were for an inchie swap at Paperplay.

I used stampboard for all the inchies.

For this ATC I use a mono print and stamped some swirls. The stamp I used for the image is an Inkadinkado stamp coloured with distress ink.

Again I used a mono print and stamped some paw prints [Craft UK] with gesso. The main image is an Inkadinkado stamp and the meow is andother Craft UK

The background for this ATC was made using acrylic paint on an acrylic block. The main image is and Inkadinkado stamp and the sentiment is a Paperartsy stamp.

Have a lovely weekend everyone and I hope you're having better weather than I'm having here.

Fur or Feathers

The latest Artful Times challenge is Fur or Feathers, I decided to go for fur although there are some birds on the embossing.

 

I made a tag out of ribbed kraft card and dry brushed lemonade DecoArt paint over it and then I stamped paw prints with burnt orange DecoArt paint. I embossed a piece of kraft core card with a cuttlebug embossing folder and sanded the raised areas to show the core.
I stamped the cat onto white card, coloured it lightly with coloured pencils and cut it out. I coloured some card with shabby shutters Distress ink and stamped the purr and rats/mice onto it and cut them out. I embellished the tag with staples and a piece of ribbon.
The stamps I used are
Craft UK for the cat and rats/mice
I don't know who made the purr stamp.

I'm entering my tag in the following challenges.

Cat Deco Pages

There's a Deco Book swap going on at KCUK and I made these pages for Anne's deco book, her theme is cats. The stamps that I used are by Craft UK. I coloured the Siamese cat with watercolour pencils and a water brush. I also used distress ink.

Again the stamps are by Craft UK and I coloured the tabby with watercolour pencils and water brush. I put stickles over the letters that spell purr. I used distress inks as well.
