When I saw that the cue card at Addicted to CAS was cat, I knew that I had to play with my Impression Obsession cat dies. I die cut them from six different colours of Simon Says glitter cardstock, glued them to the card base, and I went about creating my apartment building scene. I used a Your Next Stamp 'Large Peek A Boo' die, some careful measuring, and some partial die cutting to create the windows in the panel. I then stamped the MFT Cat-itude greeting, and embossed the brick pattern with a Darice embossing folder. If you look closely, you will see that the greeting lines p perfectly on the bricks - I would love to say that I planned this but really I just got lucky :)
I adhered the embossed card panel onto the base with some foam tape so that every cat had it own "window". I really liked how the card turned out so I made 3 more for my cat-loving friends -including this one that featured some bolder colours:
I would like to enter this card into the following challenge
- Addicted To CAS - cue card "CAT"
- Inkspirational - Aperture card
Thanks for stopping by!

All your cats look so great! Love how you plaid with the colours and the layout is super for them! Hugs, Gerrina
ReplyDeleteThese are fantastic and totally make me smile although I'm a dog person! :) Beautiful dies and a very unique way to use them. Thanks for joining us at Inkspirational!
ReplyDeleteThis was a very creative way to display those cats, Jill. The brick adds great texture and the feel of the building. Thanks for sharing your card with us at Addicted to CAS.
