Cat In The Garden

Hi!


Welcome to the new Colour Creations Blog Share. This week we are up to the g's - more specifically Garden Green. It's definitely an old favourite of mine!

The first thing I decided was that I was going to brayer the Garden Green ink. I had no idea on what I was going to do this braying though! I went looking through my DSP and found nothing suitable. Then I was looking through the items on sale for World Card Making Day and decided that the large black and white striped piece from the Lots Of Happy Card Kit would be perfect!

I CASEd myself by embossing the Gold Foil with the Subtle DTIEF and popping it behind the punched cat shape. Such a cool look! I used the stamp set from the Notes Of Kindness Card Kit to stamp the leaves behind the Gold Foil. The pearls are also left overs from the same kit - you definitely get plenty!

After I stuck down the Gold Foil on the inside I realised I should have embossed it to match the front. I probably would have lifted it up (the spatula blade on the new Take Your Pick tool is perfect for that!), but I'd already adhered the cat over the top, and it wasn't going anywhere. Typical cat! LOL!

You can see the rest of this week's Garden Green cards over at Catherine's blog. Next week is Gorgeous Grape - a lovely purple that I really haven't used much of, so this is a good chance to change that!

Bye for now,

    I love the brayering on the stripes. How cute is that cat on the inside to match the front. Love it.

    What a wonderful card, Tina. I love that cat embossed in gold foil and I think the cat on the inside works well to draw the attention of the striped paper to the inside!

    Tina, that is the coolest cat I have ever seen! I love your attention to detail and your card insides are always as amazing as the outside. Thanks for hopping along tonight!

    Great card Tina! That Subtles embossing folder is definitely now on my favourites list. There's so much you can do with it!
