More kitty cards......

I know, my plan was not to make lots of kitty cards and go outside of my comfort zone.  However when the Animal Charity needed help, then I offered to give it!  Hence lots more kitty cards.  Oh boy, am I enjoying it....tee hee....!!!! LOL!!!!

The above image is my best ever favourite I think!  It's so gorgeous and I just love colouring it, of course the kities can be any colour to suit the recipient.  Or made in various colours for the Animal Charity!
These cards also use kitties and dogs aas the main focus point and are ideal for the Animal Charity.  They are from the Pampered Pets range, which was free with a magazine a while back and I've still got a few left!
I used the gorgeous hearts embossing folder on these and it just lifts the image a bit.

Enjoy!

WOYWW 154

Here's my WOYWW worktray and as usual I'm joining in over at Julia's place.  Come and join us, it's kind of addictive and fun too.  More of the animal cards for the Summer Fayre. I've got a few things on the go on this tray, my mind just wanders off on it's own without me sometimes!  LOL!!
On Saturday I went to the Summer Fayre and saw my hand crocheted blankets being sold which was nice, and also the cards looked gorgeous in a cane basket.  I'm going to make more of the cards for their next event and also some blankets too.  It all helps them raise funds and I enjoy making them.  I just wish I could do more of it, but because of the pains in the legs it's just not possible.  Maybe one day when I win the lottery I'll have my own craft room like so many of you and will be card making in abundence at my own proper desk....well we can dream can't we....!!!!

Enjoy!

Grrrr - it's the Cupcake Tiger...!

Another stamp purchased in the sales!  I think this little fella is so cute.  Just right for anyone I think.  I made him a lovely tiger colour with my PM's and added a gem to his little cupcake.
The backing paper was a freebie I had many moons ago.   Just perfect for the tiger.  I used some buttons on the side for my embellishment.  I haven't got any bakers twine, so decided to have a go at making my own and it came out OK - what do you think?

Would you like me to show you how I made it?  If so, I'll add it in my next post before going on.  I'm using bits and pieces which came to hand after my last batch of cardmaking took place before the DVT arrived. 

Hope you like him, grrrrrrr!

Enjoy!

Another roar...!


Yes, two different lions. I coloured this one with PM's again, and added some Stickles glitter. You can't see it too well in the photo but it is there!

I used another bargain 99p paper pack (Papermania this time!) I got eons ago now. All different shades on one colour (blue in this case!). I then just added a lovely red heart (I got several from Gill in an envelope with some stamps to use with my PM's - these will follow soon!).

I added the sentiment using the computer and just matted and layered it and added the heart around it. Quite cute card for a guy I think.

Enjoy!

Roar........


I thought I'd keep away from the kitties for a while for you all, and what have I done instead....yes...a lion. I've just realised it's still a cat of sorts, but he's still cute!
This is a digi image. I've started to keep a note of where the digi images come from, obviously the old ones don't have this info, but all new ones will, I hope it helps if you'd like the same image. If I'm wasting my time, just let me know!
I used some more paper from my bargain 99p pack, shame they only had the one. Lots of lovely colours and the quality is amazing for 99p. I used a Nestie (silver mirror card with star EF on it) and just added a sentiment.
Enjoy!

Getting there....


Another digi image, I needed a tortoise for this one as I got the words before I decided on the image! LOL! It just fitted the sentiment well.

This image was coloured with my fave PM's (of course!) and I just added a simple striped backing paper along with some gold mirror card which was double scallop punched. I promise I'll change my stash I've got out soon to do some different cards for you all. It's a right pain having to keep putting everything away once I've used it, but it has to be done sadly.
This is just the right size for a notelet card and not much else is needed - nice and simples yes!
Enjoy!
