Don't Let the Cat Out of the Bag!

Hey Friends! How did it get be Wednesday already? There is nothing that makes me more aware of time passing than looking at my children and how quickly they are growing!!! I took my daughter to the doctor a few weeks ago and between the end of December and the beginning of March she had grown 2 inches!

The card I am sharing today makes me smile. As a cat lover, I can see my cats play in a bag. One of our cats (we have four) is such a character and cracks us up daily with her antics. 

I started by stamping the Cat In the Bag image from DRS Designs in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on White card stock. I colored the image with Prisma color Pencils, a paper stubby and Gamsol. Once it was colored, I cut it out using my paper snips. I then stamped the Cat's Meow Birthday Greeting  in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on White card stock and cut it out using my Large Circle Spellbinders.

Using Espresso Ink, I stamped the Easy Dot Background  on Regal Rose card stock and the Large Original Plaid on Kraft Card stock. I lightly sponged the white card stock with Kraft Ink and added Regal Rose dots using a marker.

I used Saffron card stock and the Scalloped Border Punch. Adhering all of the pieces together, I wrapped Espresso Ribbon around and tied a bow. Once completed, I added some felt flowers and gold brads using Glue Dots.

I hope you liked my project today! Thank you for stopping by! Have a blessed day!
