I've been a Sparkle N Sprinkle customer since before I started blogging or got seriously into card making and I still love playing in their challenges. If you have even glanced at my sidebar, you know I'm a nut for cats. So, when I found this image in the SnS shop, I had to grab it up right away.
I colored the cat with ProMarkers, adding a bit of white gel ink to the chest and paws. I die cut it with a plain but large, square die from QuicKutz. I inked the edges with a 'coffee' ink pad.
I made my card base with kraft CS, then added scraps of dp which came from Echo Park and Now & Then. I happen to love a combo of polka dots and stripes. The image piece went on top of that and my final touch was to add one of my signature, hand-sewn bows, this time with a sparkly gem instead of the usual pearl. I think this is simple enough to make a great masculine card.
