Today's card features what I think looks like Kitty Francin. Kitty Francin-Dalan. Westpoint graduate. This cute kitty is from Kim Hughes' Paper Smooches Nine Lives set. When I first saw this set, this kitty reminded me of Kim Francin's cat! Kim is one of my colleagues/lead at work and I have seen pictures of Kitty Francin-Dalan. Kitty with her mouth open like you see here! Kitty Francin is a white cat so I left this image uncolored which is hard for me as I think everything needs to be colored in.
I also used one of Dave's new Memory Box dies he just released called Precious Hearts. Dave outdid himself once again. But this time, went over and beyond. The dies in this new release are fabulous. Since this die had that very thin, delicate bow, I decided to use these Be Creative Tape Sheets that Ellen Hutson sells. Attach the tape to your card stock and then run it through your Big Shot (or whichever die cute machine you own). It really does make it so much easier when you do it this way. For the most part, I probably would not do this on a regular basis due to the cost of the sheets, but for the really delicate dies, it saves a lot of time.
Happy Monday and have a good week! Thanks for stopping by!
