Altered Paper Clips - Cats

Hello, everybody!  I made some more altered paper clips!  These are a lot of fun to make and a great way to use up small scraps.  This time I went with a cat theme!  You can see my floral clips here and my frog clips here.

Supplies used:

• Dies:  Poppystamps (Cozy Kitties, Sitting Cat, Walking Cat, Stitched Tunnel Tags)
• Patterned paper:  MME Collectable "Memorable"
• Cardstock:  Recollections Coffee and Cream 110 lb
• Other:  Butterfly Punch (EK Success), gems, paper clips

Here is a photo of the back. They can be used just like any paper clip.  I was inspired to make these altered paper clips after watching ScrapPerfect's video here.

I plan to give these as a gift, maybe in some happy mail, so I made some pretty packaging.  All the patterned paper is from the same pad, all scraps. This cat die is Poppystamps Curious Cat, and the word stamp is from Poppystamps Purrfect Holidays.  I added a little butterfly charm.
