My card this week really did not turn out as planned but I love how it now, looks like a night sky full of stars. I wanted to create a card for Jo and Ant after the sudden loss of their beautiful kitty Rosie. It's so hard loosing a fur baby and I wanted them to know we were thinking of them.
My plan originally was to have a plain white background with the paw prints but I really struggle with CAS cards and wast loving the look. So I created the base by cutting out the largest rectangle from the Layering Dies Metric Sized and layered on the paw prints cut out with the Pawsome Dies.
For the rainbow I used the Rainbow Mini Shaker Die and cut it out of coloured card and added clouds using the coordinating die from the Storm's Don't Last Forever Clear Stamp set. The cute kitty is from the Puurfect Day Stamp set and coloured up with Copic Markers.
It was at this point I realised I really didn't like the plain white background so tried water colouring in blue around the paw prints but that wasn't working either. So i grabbed my trusty Distress Oxides and began blending with a range of blues and adding black soot around the edges to darken them up.
I added some splatters of gold paint and stars using white gelly pen and adhered my rainbow and kitty finishing it up with some clear sequins and a black frame using the A2 Nesting Dies.
That was my card finished up for today, I hope you like it. You can find all the products I used in the Time for Tea Shop and get 10% off orders using code T4TNATALIE10 .
