Hi, everyone! Today is Day 2 of the 2022 Cat Lovers Hop and I'm guest designing! Woot, woot! It's hard to believe that this is the 8th hop - and I've joined each and every year! A big thank-you to Janis at Her Peaceful Garden for putting together this awesome hop and for making it so much fun every year! If you love cats as much as I do, then you will want to head over and check it out! Make sure you sign-in here to be eligible for prizes! To read the guidelines and FAQ, see here. Thank you to Janis for having me as your guest designer!
Handy List of 2022 Cat Lovers Hop Links
Stamps: Your Next Stamp Candy Cane Cat Stamp Set (cat and sentiment)
Dies: Your Next Stamp Ric Rac Border Die, Your Next Stamp Snowflake Border Die, Diemond Dies Die-Normous Stack-ems Nesting Circles
Patterned paper: Lawn Fawn Snow Day
I coloured the Candy Cane Cat with markers, fussy-cut, and added white accents with a paint pen. I stamped the sentiment on patterned paper and die-cut in a circle shape. To make this faux stepper, I followed Mrs. A's tutorial here. I adhered the patterned paper to the various parts of the card and then adhered the sparkly red Ric Rac Border along the bottom of the front panel. I die-cut the Snowflake Border in white and cut it apart so I could use the larger snowflakes as stand-alones and adhered 3 of them to the red paper. To finish the card, I adhered a few red snowflake sequins.
Thank you to Your Next Stamp for sponsoring the Cat Lovers Hop again this year!
