Hello everyone!

My name is Simone, and I was asked by Renee if I could fill in for one of her design team members. So here I am as your guest designer for the month of August!

For my project, I decided to use the Crazy Cat Lady SC0652 stamp. 

I stamped the image using Versafine Onyx Black ink on Bristol smooth cardstock. To color in the image, I used Zig Kuretake real brush markers. I added some sparkle to the shoes with the Kuretake Clear Glitter Brush pen and used a Posca White 0.7mm pen to add details to her gown and earrings. Once all the coloring was done, I fussy cut the image.

Next, I cut a piece of Bristol smooth cardstock to 3 3/4" x 4 1/2". I used the second largest Square Double Stitched die 5061 and placed it on the 3 3/4" x 4 1/2" paper to cut out the square. After stamping my sentiment and paws with Versafine, I adhered some foam strips along the sides. I then cut another 3 3/4" x 4 1/2" piece of patterned paper and placed my paper with the foam strips on top of it, giving it the look of a Polaroid frame. I placed some thin foam squares on the back of my crazy cat lady and adhered her inside the frame.

The card base is a top-folding 4 1/4" x 5 1/2". I cut a 4 1/8" x 5 3/8" piece of patterned paper and glued it onto the card base. Finally, I glued my Polaroid frame on top, and the card was complete.

Looking forward to a creative month with all of you!

Best regards,

Simone Carr
