Not Feline Well?

I realised the other day that I haven't used my Inktense pencils for a 

while so I had to rectify that. I dug out an unloved stamp set to match the unloved

 pencils and stamped out this cute scene.....

I started with a big ginger cat and a dark purple chair then grabbed my colour 

wheel to choose a suitable colour for the wall which is painted with regular watercolours.

Love the big scripty sentiment.... luckily it fitted in the space 'purr'fectly 😉

I coloured the edges of the card base with Distress Oxide ink then added water with a 

background stamp...... you're left with a fun texture when you soak

 up the moisture with a piece of kitchen towel.

I love the look of loose watercolour but I'm not good at freestyle watercolour myself so I was excited to see the new Wildflower Stems Sizzix Thinlets by Tim Holtz... all I had to do was add colour...

I die cut them with Bristol card stock and left the cut pieces in the card whilst I 

added the watercolour... this made it much easier as they are quite delicate.

Whilst they were drying I swooshed pale green paint on the card base and added splatters in pinks, greens and purples. After a bit of faffing I managed to arrange the stems how I liked them and then glued them down..... not adding glue to all areas so the raised edges give a bit of dimension.

I love how this turned out :)

Happy Crocs

I couldn't resist these Crocs from Heffy Doodle.... just look at those 

facial expressions not to mention the toothy grin!!

You get a few accessory images in the set and I couldn't resist giving this one an 

empty bottle and glass of wine to go with this fun MFT sentiment. 

Here's what the inside of the card says 😂...

Here's another croc from the set... doesn't he look smart in his dickie bow??

He just had to be rushing along with a piece of cake for a special person...

Hmmm.... would you trust that smile? 🤔
