Day 2
"Everlasting Love"
Loveleigh Kitty Card
by Leigh

We wish you all everlasting love on this wonderful Valentine's and Galentine's Day
 
 
For Day 2's inspiration for our 7th annual Gothic Valentine celebration I've got a Gothic romance Loveleigh Kitty themed card for you featuring the Love Hearts Kitty from my new Loveleigh Kitties "The Love Cats" mini collection.
 
 
To make my card I first printed out the Love Hearts Kitty and coloured her up with Copics and Prismacolor pencils.  I then fussy cut her out leaving a narrow white border then adhered her to a piece of deep red cardstock and fussy cut her out again with a narrow red border.
 
 
I made a folded card base from heavy weight white cardstock and cut a deep red cardstock mat 1/4" inch smaller and edged it with Spectrum Noir Midas gold pigment ink.  I used a Tim Holtz Halloween Backdrop for my background and cut it 1/4" smaller than the red mat.  The vintage shabby chic botanical backdrop was PURRfect for my Love Hearts Kitty card.
 

 
The Crafter"s Companion nesting frame die set I used has a wonderful Gothic romance vibe.  I cut the panels from deep red cardstock and applied metallic gold pigment ink to the outer edge of the smaller frame.  I kept the heart cut outs from the interior panel, coloured them with a metallic gold paint pen and paper pieced them back into the frame.

 
From a piece of scrap red cardstock I used a Crafter's Companion die to cut out the "Everlasting Love" sentiment which I also coloured with the metallic gold paint pen.
 
 
All the die cuts were cut with double sided adhesive sheets applied to the cardstock to make adhering everything to the card a breeze and for a touch of wonderful dimension I adhered the Love Hearts Kitty in place with foam tape.
 
 
❤ Love Hearts Kitty makes a PURRtastic Valentine card PURRfect for everyone who loves cats and easily works for any occasion too just by switching out the sentiment
