Challenge 200 - Cats and Dogs!

Welcome back to Lost Coast Portal to Creativity where Lost Coast Designs and Carmen's Veranda collide to bring you twice the inspiration and double the fun!

Greetings! You've got Kathi here today to share a card created for the August Cats and Dogs Challenge 200 with the Poky Cat and Fat Cat Rubber Stamps by Lost Coast Designs.


The Poky Cat and Fat Cat Rubber Stamps were stamped twice with Tuxedo Black Memento ink onto white cardstock and onto repositionable sticker paper.

The sticker paper versions were fussy-cut and adhered onto their counterparts on the image panel to mask them.  A piece of repositionable scotch tape was placed horizontally across the image panel, covering their paws and the bottom of the panel.

Blue dye ink was brushed over the masked images. The image panel was then cut with a die. 

The masks and the tape were lifted and the images were colored with Copic markers. The area around and below Poky Cat and Fat Cat's paws was also colored with Copic markers.

The same blue dye ink was used to edge the top part of the image panel and a Copic marker was used to edge the bottom part of the image panel.

Orange patterned paper was die-cut with both a decorative rectangle die and sentiment label die. The rectangle die was used to mat the image panel. A sticker sentiment was adhered to the sentiment label die.

Patterned papers were layered as shown and trimmed to 5.75" square to create the background panel.  The matted image panel and the sentiment were adhered the background panel, then to an orange 6" card. Black rhinestones were added to finish the card.

You still have a few days to enter this month's Cats and Dogs Challenge for a chance to win Lo$t Coa$t Ca$h!
