Hello everyone,
For today's AALL & Create GDT post I have made a card with one of Dominic's cats. I am more of a dog person but I do like these stamps.
Here's how I made it:
I painted a card panel with shimmer watercolours and added some stencilling with white acrylic paint. The paints are not as shimmery as I expected them to be.
I added some stamping here and there.
Next I stamped and coloured the cat; I then cut him out.
When I put the cat on the panel I thought it was too stark a contrast with the pale background so I added some more stencilling in black to balance it a little better. I also drew a line around the edges.
I also added black washi tape and pink and white splatters.
I only used part of the sentiment that says: You had me at MEOW. It would have been to m much on this card. Instead I added some of the 'You had me' as a background stamp. Lastly I added some white dots to the black areas of the cat to make it a little less black.
