Here Kitty Kitty Kitty



Oh my gosh, I am SO in love with these Stephanie Fizer cats from My Favorite Things! Aren't they soooooo adorable? Today's layout comes from Jen del Muro's Sketch for You To Try. You can find the sketch, Jen's sample, and guest designer Nancy Riley's sample at i{heart}2stamp. Then be sure to peek at what Amy, Carole, Shannan, and Susan have put together! We hope you'll be inspired to play along!! If you upload to SCS, be sure to use keyword: SFYTT.

I stamped the image in Memento Tuxedo Black on Georgia Pacific Bright White, colored with Copic markers, then cut the circle out with a Nestability (the image comes with a rectangle frame around it). I stamped the image a second time and trimmed out the tails only, so I could make them look like they're hanging out of the frame. The silver rings are metal-edge tags with the paper removed. The stars are dotted with Stardust Stickles.

Don't miss my sample for this week's Our Creative Corner challenge HERE!

Have a great weekend!

The kitties are cute as ever, and your color is out of this world (as usual!)--all so perfectly contrasted with your cbug snowflakes!
