happy purr-thday shaped card

Hey everybody, Happy Friday! I’m delighted to bring you another Keep It Simple DT inspiration project today that I created with our new Build-A-House Collection! OMGosh, these products are phenomenal! You start with the basic Build-A-House die set and then you have the add-on Build-A-Dogouse, Build-A-Cathouse and Build-A-Birdhouse die sets with coordinating stamp sets! How fun is that?! I used the Build-A-House KIS Cuts, Build-A-Cathouse Stamps and Build-A-Cathouse KIS Cuts to create this shaped card! I can’t tell you how much fun I’ve had playing with this collection!

I cut the shaped card base from Neenah Classic Crest Solar White cardstock using the Build-A-House KIS Cuts. I cut the double-decker base house pieces from papers in the Rose 12×12 Collection Pack. Using the Weathered Wood Background Stamp, I stamped a woodgrain pattern in Catherine Pooler Twilight ink on the upstairs and downstairs main pieces.

Using the Build-A-Cathouse KIS Cuts, I cut the cat from Solar White cardstock and colored the pieces with alcohol markers. Next, I cut the grass and cat bowl from papers in the Jade and Lemon 12×12 Collection Packs. Finally, I stamped the sentiment on a scrap piece of Solar White cardstock in Twilight ink and fussy cut it.

I embellished the inside panel with papers from the Rose Collection used on the front and stamped a sentiment in Twilight ink.
