Hi, everyone! I have used this week's Sketch Challenge over at Splitcoast to help in creating a birthday card for my great niece, Kynna, who will be two this week. The challenge police may come after me since the main panel does not go all of the way across. For my card, the kitty from 'The Cat's Meow' was stamped on white with Stazon Jet Black; the eyes, ears, and nose were colored with markers then coated with a clear glaze pen. The fur was then colored with a sponge dauber and ink; I do not have the custom die for this set, so I had to fussy cut it. The bow was stamped separately, fussy cut, then paper-pieced onto the kitty. The following custom dies from ODBD were also used: Birthday Balloons, Numbers, Fence, Grass Hill, Double Stitched Pennant Flags, Double Stitched Rectangles, Clouds and Raindrops (cloud stencil). Pink baker's twine was used to 'tie' the balloons to the fence.
Thanks for stopping by!!
Blessings,

What a gorgeous card Angella - love that image, and who says you have to 'slavishly' follow a sketch - they are there to inspire you, not imtimidate :-)
