Cat Card - Inside Out


This card is a first for me - the first time I liked the inside better than the outside of a card!  The picture above shows the inside of the card and is made just using a variety of stickers and other elements from my stash - no idea where they came from originally.   

You can see the outside of the card below.  The focal is a pretty stamp called "Miss Kitty Small" from Sweet Stamps.  I heat embossed it with white and then colored it with Smooch inks.  Most times I like the look of Smooch inks, but I just don't like the way this cat turned out.  Oh well - hopefully my cat-loving daughter liked it anyway!


The background paper is from a DCWV Matstack.  The white mat was die cut with Spellbinder's Decorative Labels Eight.  Both the focal and the sentiment where white heat embossed on white glossy cardstock that had been colored with alcohol inks.  The focal was cut with a JustRite Die from their Nested Oval Medallions set.    The Sentiment was cut from Paper Artist 6 Layered Labels and 2 Swirls die and stamped with a stamp from the matching Greetings and Labels stamp set.
