Je suis le Chat...

Hello everyone,

For my DT post for Katzelkraft today I have made three ATC's using different stamp sets.


I started off with a piece of white card stock. I used a brayer and acrylic paint (light blue, green, white and purple) to colour it. I also used  a piece of cardboard and brayered some paint on it. I then used it as a mark making tool and added the stripes with it.. 




Next I used a dot stamp to add some more interest to the background. I used ink colours that were similar to the paint. 






Next I stamped the cats. The solid black ones were stamped straight onto the ATC with Archival ink. The cat from the first ATC was stamped separately as it has script around it and I didn't want that on this ATC. 



Lastly I stamped the sentiment on a piece of white card stock, cut it in pieces and adhered it to the ATC's. It is by R. Kipling and it translates to: I am the cat that walks by myself, and all places are alike to me. 

I used the following stamp sets:

Thank you for stopping by today !

  1. Incredible ATCs, Corrie! I never think of using my brayer to apply paint (other than smooshing it on my gelli plate). Great idea!
