Furever Friends: Kitty Faces Purrfect Birthday Card + Winners

Hi there!  I hope you're having a Sunny Monday in your neck of the woods!  I am excited to be sharing some more Furever Friends.  The idea for this card woke me up out of a sound sleep.  I thought it would be fun to stamp one of the kitty's faces repeatedly onto small pieces of scratch cardstock.  I then colored them as all sorts of varieties and cut them out leaving just the heads.



I inked up my background using Salty Ocean distress ink and then when it was good and dry, heat embossed my sentiment with white embossing powder.  For my little kitty faces, I arranged them on the diagonal and popped them up on my card using foam tape.  I was a bit unhappy with the extra space between them so I then took that same Salty Ocean distress ink and stamped some subtle tone-on-tone hearts between them.

I wasn't about to fussy cut all those whiskers so when I was nearly done, I sketched in some new whiskers on my background using a .3 Copic Multiliner pen.



That wraps up today's card.  For those of you who have started to receive your orders and have created some projects with your new stamps and dies, don't forget we would love to see them!  Share them with us on our Facebook Page and upload them to our Flickr Group.  I will be sharing projects that catch my eye on our Sunny Saturday posts in the near future.  ;)

Also before I go I wanted to announce the winners from our Sunny Studio Blog hop.  Congratulations ladies! Please email me at info@sunnystudiostamps.com with your favorite stamp set and mailing address.  :)

Furever Friends: Smitten Kitten Tabby Cat Card

Today I have a Furever Friends card to share using the curled up kitty image which I colored with my Copic markers to look like a big orange tabby cat.

For my background I was looking for a complimentary color that would make my kitty pop so I chose to blend peacock feathers and mermaid lagoon distress inks.  I then cut my panel down to 3.75" x 5" and punched a 2" circle out of the right side to make room for my sentiment.



Before I adhered my kitty, I colored in a little shadow below him by drawing a freehand oval with my Neutral Grey Copic marker.  To finish my card I topped the little stamped hearts with glossy accents to make them shine.



Don't forget today is the last day to get those comments in for the blog hop we had on Tuesday.  I will be back to announce the winners on Monday.  I hope you have a happy and relaxing weekend!  :)
