Pink & Girlie Pussycat

This card was a commission from lady at work!
She wanted a 30th Birthday card for her Daughter in Law who likes pink & cats!
Not much to go on but here's what I came up with!


I made an A5 easel card, using elements from a  Craftystash download.
The design paper was part of the download & the pink paper was from my stash.
I cut out the pyramage, then layered it up using pinflair glue


I punched out lots of little leaves using my Woodware punch 
then added them along with some buttons & little pale pink roses.


I added a cat charm which I threaded onto the stem of the rose. 
This allows it to move.



I created a circle sentiment in my graphics programme .
I cut this out with an inverted scallop circle nestie.
It was then stuck onto a scalloped circle of the pink paper.
Next I cut the stop from some white card,
using a Marianne Design Creatables Die


I stuck the sentiment on to this, then I stuck it to the card using foam tape.
I have to say I was quite please with the result.
Sorry the pics aren't the best but the weather is atrocious at the moment.
Thanks for stopping by!

  13. I'd say you were spot on with both the cat and the girlie pink! Love the flowers and buttons but the cat charm is the most adorable. Wonderful!
