Hello friends!
Happy Saturday!
Today is the last day of Cat Lovers Hop 2021 and I am showcasing a cute Purr-thday card for the loved one!
I think the cat looks adorable out of PP. Also wanted to try using some strings stitched through the holes! Isn't it so fun!
Firstly I stamped the cat image on a dotted PP and fussy cut it.
On a stitched holes rectangle white panel I stitched a crisis cross pattern using pink double shaded embroidery floss. On a thinking cloud, stamped a birthday cup and watecolored it.
I heat embossed the sentiment on a fishtail strip of black CS using Wow EP. I grounded the sentiment with a strip of multicoloured zig-zag stripes PP.
Created a snowfall background at the top. As an embellishment, I added a flower sequin to the cat head and a tiny golden heart to the black strip.
I can just imagine this cute cat sitting on strings and the dream she gets into ........ and enjoying snowflakes on her birthday!!
