Cat Lovers Hop Day 4

   Hello

If you are looking for my 
Gecko Galz Blog Hop post
 and free digital collage sheet
 it is HERE - have fun!


Welcome to Day 4 of the Cat Lovers Hop 2021.

Another big hello to all my furry, feline-loving friends!

The Cat Lovers Hop is an annual event hosted by the lovely Janis over on her blog at Her Peaceful Garden.
If you like cats pop over and have a look at the fun games and awesome prizes that Janis has organised for the next few days. 

Today I have  a scaredy cat :)


I adore The Snarky Cats, but, as yet, I only own the Halloween set and I used that to make today's card.
I sprayed Oxides onto the background, then added some ink blending and went around the edges with Black Soot. I added some stamping in black and plenty of splatters. The cat and broom were stamped directly onto the background and again onto white card. I fussy cut and coloured the images then adhered them over the stamped versions - this way all the furry hairs and small details were kept. I chose one of the sentiments - this one is perfect for my scaredy cat, stamped it onto white card and cut it into strips..



That's all for now.

Thanks for stopping by today.
xoxo

  16. Fabulous, caught my eye in the Lost Coast Hallowe’en challenge gallery thumbnails and the full size doesn’t disappoint! Great to have some company in the strategy of stamping on the base and sticking a cut out over the top as a way to keep details, too!
