"Cat's Meow" birthday card for my sister and The East Wind DT!

Howzit Everyone!
I'm extremely excited to announce that I'm now designing for The East Wind :0)
I adore Unky's digital stamps, especially her Lucy Loo line!  Here's my first project made for our new Challenge "Let 'er Rip - Torn edges/paper!  Plus, I'm also sharing a second TEW project today featuring the new release digi for this week too...see my next post!


You all know how much I love Alice in Wonderland and Cats and my sister loves kitties too so I made this card for her birthday....Happy Birthday Paula, love ya...mwah!
 

 This gorgeous kitty girl is called Lucy Loo 'Cheshire Cat' MAC0121

Stop by The East Wind Etsy store to snap her up and check out the entire collection while you're there!


I started out in Photoshop CS6 and added the "Happy Birthday" text to the signs on the tree and made my own sentiment and printed out the image twice onto Neenah solar white cardstock.  I coloured the cat and the signs with Copics and a touch of Prismacolor pencils on the first copy and the rest of the design on the 2nd.  The background was created using Copics and alcohol blending solution. 


 I fussy cut out the pieces, curved them to create a puffy 3D effect and layered them with pop dots to further enhance the dimension.  For the "Torn Edges/Paper" part of the challenge I trimmed the main panel by tearing it instead of cutting and grunged it up a bit with a bit of Tea Dye Distress Ink.  I also tore the patterned decorative teal paper (DCWV The Heirloom stack) and the red cardstock mats as well.  I love how she turned out :0)


Come and join the fun at The East Wind...we have fun challenges on our Facebook TEW Group and in Blogland too!

Rocking Cheshire Cat Card - Smeared Ink GDT!

Hello Friends!

Today I'm sharing a kinetic card featuring Smeared Ink's digi image, the Cheshire Cat!  Such a fun and totally bizarre image to create with, I love it :0).   I made the card as my GDT sample for their Smudgy Antics challenge, Crumple It, which starts today.


Print the image onto Neenah Solar White cardstock and colour using Disney's colour scheme with the following Copics: RV10, 13, 17, C0, 3, W3, Y13, R46, YG06, BV01, 02, 04, E000, 01, 02, 13, 15, 17, 18 and the 0 colourless blender.  Cut out the image and adhere it to a sheet of dark red cardstock and cut out leaving a narrow border.


Crumple up a square piece of white cardstock and apply Shaded Lilac and Spun Sugar Distress Inks with a foam ink applicator tool.   Apply Black Soot DI to the edges.  Make a square folded card from the same dark red cardstock and adhere the crumpled mat to it with glue and add yellow brads to all 4 corners.  Embellish the brads with sparkly pink heart jewel stickers by Stampendous. 


Adhere the Cheshire Cat to the card with a mini card spring by Papermania Docrafts.  The spring action really adds to the bizarreness of the image when it spins and wobbles!  I'm having some computer tech issues at the moment so I'm hoping to add a little video clip of it in action soon.

Thanks for visiting with me today :0)

Happy Stamping!
