Cute Kitten - Happy Birthday

Hi My Crafty Blog Friends

I hope you are having a wonderful weekend. Yesterday our daughter had her dress fitting and it has been taken off to be altered. My husband and I went to the masked ball in the evening, it was lots of fun. I had never been to anything like that before.

When I was at the craft day I wanted to practice with the water colour pencils and blender before I started on the projects that had been prepared for us so I had an idea of how the pencils worked.  I stamped an image on a piece of scrap paper and had a little play.


As I coloured the image at the event and I had no idea that I would make it into a card I chose the mats and layers to match my colouring. I used my Double Pierced Squares and Rectangles, designed by Sue Wilson for Creative Expressions, to cut the mats and the layer. I like the pierced effect they give.  


This is one of the stamps from the Pretty Kitty stamp set by Stampin Up. The image was coloured with water colour pencils that were blended with a blender pen. 


Here I am using the Crafter's Companion Happy Birthday die again. I use it a lot as it is a very good size and the dot on the i is attached. 


I was pleased with how this card came together. There is a cute doggy set of stamps as well. 


Happy Crafting

Hugs Jackie
