Purrfect Cat with Butterflies

Hello, everyone.  I made another kitty card LOL.


I started by stamping French script in grey and the word "Purrfect" in black on a cream card base.  I stamped the cat in black on a white scrap and mounted on black and then a torn burgundy scrap, onto which I stamped butterflies repeatedly in gold and "Double Blessings" sentiment in black.  I affixed the torn panel to the card and attached two black eyelets, which I tied with gold twine.  Lastly I embellished with two butterfly stickers.  Here are the supplies used:
  • Stamps:  Cat (Magenta Cat of the Month - August 2009 - Lili), French script (Stampin' Up!), "Purrfect" (Technique Tuesday - Cats we Love), butterfly, "Double Blessings" (unknown, unmarked)
  • Ink:  Versafine Onyx Black, Stampin' Up! Going Grey, Brilliance Galaxy Gold
  • Cardstock:  Stampin' Up!, Walmart
  • Accents:  Eyelets, gold twine, stickers (dollar store)

This is wonderful! I love all the different techniques you used. The eyelets with the gold cord on an angle is great. You should be submitting this one to some magazines! Great job!

Do Kiwi and honeydew watch the butterflies serrupticiously Kitty? My boys do but fortunately they don't try to pounce - they just seem to be mesmerised by butterflies fluttering around my plants. Once again, you've given me a lovely big smile. I love the colouring you have used - it gives your card such a gentle, elegant feel - and I'm feeling lovely and calm just looking at it. (bit like my boys in the garden). Good luck in our challenge this week. Ingrid xx (OSAAT Team)
