Kitty Valentine

Happy Friday!  It's Jeanne posting today with another Valentine's card!  I love this sweet kitty and had to make her grey like my sweet, old grey kitty, Andreya.
I started with an A2 (5 1/2 x 4 1/4 inch) card base in Real Red, a piece of patterned paper cut to 5 3/8 x 4 1/8 inches and a heart die cut using the largest of the Stitched Hearts dies.
Next, I cut out the cat and small heart using the patterned paper and two shades of grey - Basic Grey and Smoky Slate.
I used Smoky Slate ink and a sponge dauber to add some depth to the edges.  I colored the ears pink and nose black using Copic markers.  Then I assembled the cat.
I put an  adhesive sheet on the back of the red cardstock and die cut the sentiment.
Finally, I assembled the card.  Since the sentiment die also cut out a little red bow, I thought that would be the perfect finishing touch for my sweet kitty.  You can see it in the final card.
Dies I used:

Valentines, Part 1

Hi, Janja here!

I wish you all a happy new year full of joy, and creativity.

In the next three posts, I'll share with you a few simple cards created by new CottageCutz dies - Valentines. These dies will be available in store in the next few days.
Motives that are cut out with these dies are very cute, and they speak for themselves.
Let us show someone that we love. Such small attentions are never too much.
To warm up a little, today I will show you two cards from Valentine's series, that I have created.


Supplies:
- white card base: 4.1 x 5.4" (10,5 x 13,7 cm), folded
- patterned paper: 3.7 x 5" (9,5 x 12,7 cm)
- white and colored cardstock
- Distress ink: Worn Lipstick, Antique Linen, Tea Dye, Hickory Smoke
- glue
- double-sided adhesive tape
- adhesive foam pads

Prepare two card bases from white cardstock for both cards. On one card base cut out corners with corner punch. Trim patterned papers, and cut out with dies all the elements that will be placed on cards.

CottageCutz dies: typewriter, love postage, sweet love borders.



 Assemble the card as on photo.



CottageCutz dies: telephone, love hearts, rounded square set (7th die from the middle of a set), rounded rectangle set (the largest die from the set).


Cut out polaroid photo frame. 




Completed card. 



Thank you for coming over and have a nice day.
