Today’s card started with the Oh My Whiskers Stamp Set. I used the kite and a kitten during the sneak peeks and just can’t get enough of this set. Is there anything cuter than a couple of kittens in a “wellie?”

The image was stamped, using copic friendly Gina K Black Amalgam Ink, onto #80 Neenah cardstock. It was die cut using the coordinating Oh My Whiskers Die Set. I have included the copic colors for those who I know like to know:

Boot (Wellie)

R39, R24, R27, R29
Pail

One of my favorites in this release is the Watercolor Lines Die. I cut it from Tim Holtz Watercolor paper. It was painted with a #6 DaVinci Cosmotop Spin brush using Picked Raspberry, Spiced Marmalade, Mustard Seed, Twisted Citron, Salty Ocean, and Wilted Violet Distress Inks. The inside pieces will be saved for another project.

To give the piece dimension, I cut three more pieces from #80 cardstock and layered them using a Hero Arts Glue Pen. This is much easier and faster than cutting pieces of foam tape.

The sentiment is from the Cherish Stamp Set. It was stamped on Hero Arts black cardstock and heat embossed with Hero Arts White Detail Embossing Powder. Remember to use an anti static powder tool before stamping on dark cardstock.

The Cherish was cut from black cardstock using the coordinating Cherish Die Set. I cut three additional pieces and glued them together using a Hero Arts Glue Pen.

Scotch Foam Tape was added to the back of the image and the sentiment strips.

All the pieces were glued to a #110 Neenah cardstock folded card base. The kittens eyes were enhanced and freckles added using a Black and a White Gelly Pen.

I added hearts to the boots using Honey Bee Clay Hearts. I wanted them a darker red so I colored them with a R29 Copic marker.

Seriously, the cute factor of these kittens is off the chart! They have a puppy set as well for the dog lovers. Be sure to check it out.
