Cool Blue

Hello.  Welcome.  It's the second of the month and the September Card Chain Challenge Reveal is on the blog and looking amazing.  We even have pizza!!!   I went with the sketch, sort of, and the themes of friendship and cats and sent my card to Lise Mariann in Norway.  


I have been having a bit of a blue period and I decided to stamp Repeat Impressions Oliver on blue paper, emboss with dark blue powder and add some blue memory marker for the eyes.  I fussy cut him and then used a pearlescent blue panel cut with Sizzix Deckle Edge die on a dark blue base card.  I stamped the Rubber Dance sentiment which says 'to a friend'.  

Do hop over and check out the full reveal.  So many amazing cards from crafty ladies all over the planet, sending love one card at a time.  

If you would like to send and receive some happy mail you can join the October fun by signing up for the October exchange.  Sign up closes 6th October. 

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz

I haven't seen this stamp in use before, it really is a large image, isn't it? It looks very cool embossed the way you have done it, and those eyes!! Thanks for playing with The House That Stamps Built.

Yes, it is a big beautiful cat. I've used him a few times and seem to like to colour him blue/grey. Maybe I should try some other colours. Hugz

That’s a lovely cat stamp, she does look as though she’s expecting her staff to wait on her very whim! Great card for the chain!
