Hi, everybody! I'm back to share some kitty cards! I needed a couple of quick cards for friends/family who love cats as I was running out of time for mailing. I decided to recycle/upcycle some cat-themed gift-card holders from a couple years ago. The images are too adorable not to re-use, and they were a great size as a focal point on A2 cards.
Everything on these cards was from my scraps/leftovers/snippets: the kitty cards, the red cardstock, the embossed kraft cardstock, and even the self-made sentiments (Microsoft Word). All of these things have been in the pile for years so it felt great to use them! That was the last of the snowflake-embossed kraft cardstock so if I need more, I'll have to emboss it.
The red foil accents on the recycled cards doesn't show up well in the above photo, so here are some angled shots to show the foil:

ReplyDeleteThose cards are just the cutest ever! I love the smiling cat on the first one especially and the trio of kitties wearing Santa hats is nothing but fun! Great cards and fun cat toons too :)
ReplyDeleteThese re-cycle cards turned out fantastic with the super cute kitties.
