<\/a>I used the following Copic colors to color up this Parisian kitty and then fussy cut it out (cutting around all the whiskers with a small white border):\nKitty: W0, W1, and W3 with W7 nose and R20 ears
\nGlasses: RV04 and RV06 with R20 in glass
\nHat and scarf: Y11 and Y02
\nStriped shirt: N2, N3, N5, RV04 and RV06<\/p>\n
Then I remembered that I had a tiny Lawn Fawn, “merci” freebie stamp so I stamped that out and free-hand cut out a speech bubble for it.\u00a0For the main sentiment, I used the simple, “Happy Mother’s Day!” sentiment from The Greeting Farm “I Love Mom” stamp set<\/a><\/span>, heat embossing it with Ranger Super Fine White Embossing Powder onto black card stock.<\/p>\n To create a kind of frame and focal area on the card front, I used the circle background We R Memory Keepers Next Level Dotted embossing folder<\/a><\/span> with a plain white piece of card stock and then cut out a circle using a Lawn Fawn Stitched Circle Stackables Die<\/a><\/span>. To back the circle opening, on another scrap of white card stock I blended on some Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Ink in Picked Raspberry<\/a><\/span> and Squeezed Lemonade<\/a><\/span> for a kind of ombre sunset effect. I splattered a bit of Heidi Swapp Sheer Color Shine<\/a><\/span> shimmer water on the inked background to create a soft, sparkly mottled look. I also inked the edges of the card base with more\u00a0Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Ink in Picked Raspberry to repeat that color one more time on the card.<\/p>\n The assembly was super easy. I positioned the inked sunset scrap onto the card base so that it would back the circle opening of the card front. I popped up the dry embossed bubbly card front with some fun foam for a bit of dimension. I positioned the sentiment strip so that the kitty would have something to sit on. \ud83d\ude42 Then lastly I popped up the kitty and the merci on thick foam dots for even more dimension. As a little finishing touch, I added Ranger Glossy Accents<\/a><\/span> to the kitty’s glasses and nose for a bit of shine.<\/p>\n The following is a process video of creating this card:<\/p>\n Disclosure<\/span>: Many of the supplies I\u2019ve used for today\u2019s project are linked.\u00a0Some may be affiliate links, which means if you make a purchase I receive a small commission at no extra cost to you.
