Here Be Katz

Hello.  Welcome.  The day has arrived.  The Cat Lovers Hop is live.  I have been finding cat related items in my stash.  More than I realised!!  I may be more of a cat lover than I thought LOL.  So here is my first offering to all you cat lovers and fans



Purrrrrr...... 

I cut my cat using Go Kreate Purr die from paper I have brayered with paint and added some Kaisercraft stamps.  He's hiding his fangs



I was going to make an ATC but my cat overfloweth.  Idea!  I grabbed my Prima 6 x 8 Free Spirit cards and found one that my cat liked



I smooched black archival on the card, added the cat and a couple of bats cut using Sizzix die, cos we was feeling 'weeny.  It's enough to make you want to journal.

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz

I came over from the Cat Lovers hop and had to take a closer look at this more-than-mischievous kitty! Those google eyes add just a dash of crazy fun and makes him even more fabulous.

This cat made from your wonderful brayered and stamped paper is fabulous. Love those mischievous and slightly annoyed eyes. You just know he has Tricks on his mind, whether or not he gets Treats!! Great idea using the big journaling card...that the cat liked! :) Love the addition of the bats!!!

I had no idea that there was a die like that!!! Just got to persuade my OH that we need it for cards for our cat lovers. Love the paper you created to die cut him from, it's gorgeous TFS Karen x

Gail said...

I love how you placed the eyes -he looks really menacing- he has Attitude.

Lisa - papergrace said...

Awww!! Love your kitty and how (just like most cats) he has so much cat-itude. ;) Wonderful texture on his body and I love his eyes! I'm so glad that you played along with us at the Mixed Media Monthly Challenge Blog, but in order to be eligible to prizes and placement you must also use our challenge graphic in your post (as stated in our rules). Thank you for understanding.
