I recently saw a fun sketch that I wanted to try so used an image I already had stamped and coloured and hey presto this is my clean and simple card:
A closer look at the cute kitty:
I decorated the inside as usual:
I began by cutting a white panel 4" x 5 1/4". I ink blended some panels using yellow, orange and green ink and die cut some circles and other shapes from them. I placed them to fit with the sketch I followed and adhered them with liquid glue. I already had the cat and basket stamped, coloured and die cut and I thought he looked quite cute amongst the die cut shapes. I adhered the cat and basket with foam squares and then stamped the ball of wool directly onto one of the shapes with black ink. I also stamped a sentiment in the bottom right of the panel with black ink. I added the panel to my card base with double sided tape. For the inside I cut another white panel to 4" x 5 1/4". I had some shapes left over so adhered them to the bottom left with liquid glue. I stamped the cat and ball of wool onto the shapes with black ink and also stamped a sentiment in the upper centre of the panel with black ink. I adhered the panel onto my card base with double sided tape. A really simple card but super cute I think; I hope you agree.

Oh so pretty! Love the shapes in the background. Normally it’s just one or two shapes; this adds interest. ❤️ By the way, your cat looks a little snobby. Lmao! But aren’t they all? Great inspiration Denise!
