Hi, Welcome to my blog.
Today I'm sharing 2 cards using the same stamp set. Both these cards have been mailed and on their way to brighten someone's day. Click to enlarge card for better detail.
The stamp set used on both cards is: Purr-ade Crasher Pissy Kitty from Unity Stamp Company.
For this card I started with a card base of Night of Navy (SU) and stamped the small start and the meowica sentiment in a random pattern. Then I layered that with a piece of designer paper from USC, (Grand Ol' Flag) paper pack.
I stamped the kitty on watercolor card stock with Versa mark ink and embossed with black embossing powder (Bold Black-SU). Then I used ink pads and a water brush to color the kitty. I added glitter to the fireworks and Wink of Stella to the stars on the shirt/sunglasses. Image was cut out with a circle die from Unity. I stamped the sentiment on the same watercolor cs and cut it out with a fishtail die.
Then I added another piece of the designer paper cut with a larger fishtail die. I finished the card off with a small punched star and mounted the image and banners with foam tape.
Card #2:
Same stamped image of Pissy Kitty this time on Basic White card stock. Colored with pencils and blended with Gamsol/blending stumps. Then I fussy cut the image out. I also stamped a second image and colored the sunglasses which were then cut out and later mounted with foam tape over the image (more on that in a bit)
Card base is Basic White. - Layered with patterned paper also from Unity but this packet is called, (Yankee doodle Dandy)
More patterned paper was used for the star layer, striped layer and the 3 small stars on the card. All were from the above named paper package.
Postage dies *Unity which are currently Sold Out. I stamped the sentiment with Memento Tuxedo black ink and edged the die with some Misty Moonlight ink (SU). The larger star and the kitty image were mounted with foam tape to raise them up.
After coloring the sunglasses and cutting them out. I used some Diamond glaze (JudiKins) to make them look like actually sunglasses. This was a bit tricky since I accidentally cut the hole on my bottle a little bit to much so the glaze comes out sometimes a little faster then I want it to. You will notice that in the close-up of the glasses. But hey, it's still a fun little detail.
Happy 4th of July to everyone in America!
First time using these stamps and papers so off to NBUS#76 they go.
