All In Favor

Hey everybody! Happy Friday – I hope you have something fun planned this weekend. I’m delighted to share a Brutus Monroe DT inspiration project today featuring the awesome Clowder of Cats stamps, stencil and chipboard along with the Spring Splatter 6×6 Paper Pack, all from our February release! You know we rescue cats and these products are right up my alley! I created a fun birthday card featuring the tear and roll technique. It’s not a fun fold like I typically share, but this super fun (and easy) technique packs a punch nonetheless!

I cut an A2 panel from a pattern in the Spring Splatter 6×6 Paper Pack and tore a strip across the center. I rolled it around a skinny skewer and glued it in place as I rolled it. I laid the panel down on the card base to get the placement for my sentiment from the Clowder of Cats Stamp Set. I stamped it in Raven ink and then adhered the panel to a Pre-Scored Card Base.

I placed the Clowder of Cats Chipboard onto the Stamp & Stick Mat with the Clowder of Cats stencil that I attached to my Make Art Stay-tion with magnets. I grabbed three small blending brushes and inked the chipboard with vintage photo, walnut stain and weathered wood distress inks. I adhered this adorable row of kitties to the card front and added several Blue Shift Flat Back Crystals, which completed the card front.

I trimmed one-half of another Pre-Scored Card Base for the inside panel which I embellished with a leftover strip of the Spring Splatter paper used on the front. I stamped the paws image in Raven ink and layered the panel on light brown cardstock.
