Purrfect Birthday


This one is for anyone who loves cats.  Isn't he just the dapper man about town?

I started with a Bugaboo sketch.  The background is on watercolour paper and used a smooshing technique.  Mr Cat is stamped onto previously misted and inked card, with some details coloured with Copics, and eyes with white pen.  The grass is the negative of a diecut used in another project and is anchored with some washi tape with metallic gold spots.  The sentiment is stamped onto a scrap of the same card as Mr Cat.

Stamp: KatzelKraft
Sentiment stamp: Little Birdie
Also: Distress inks, Glimmer Mists, washi, white pigment pen
