Party Cat

Birdie Brown is celebrating her 2^nd birthday and has two challenges this month to celebrate. I love Torico’s images and was lucky recently to have won some money to spend in Etsy stores and bought several of the new images. The one I used on this card is Party Cat, I know a couple of people who adore kitties and would love this as a birthday card.

I chose a sketch from The House That Stamps Built and rotated it to fit the image which has been coloured in with Promarkers and Flexmarkers in bright primary colours.

The yellow card blank has been trimmed along the edge with a Fiskars punch leaving the white inside showing as a contrast. The paper is from the Happy Birthday pack by Dovecraft. I used some curling ribbon to cover the join on the paper edge and some funky fibres to which I have attached 2 balloon shaped brads. The sentiment was a freebie and is perfect to go with the image.

Happy 2^nd Birthday Birdie Brown, I hope you will be celebrating many more J
