It's Addicted to Stamps and More's NINTH birthday! The first challenge was on June 20th, 2012. And how fitting that we have rotated to BIRTHDAYS in our challenge list! I went a little fancier than usual in my cardmaking for this special occasion:
This is only my second time using this sweet Cats & Plants card kit from My Favorite Things - which is a little silly, since it's so much fun to use! I decided to create a little windowsill scene, starting with die cutting the window, curtain rod and curtains. I used a cloud stencil for the window view. (I think it will be fun sometime to put either another cat or a dog peeking in, but that's another card.) I also die cut the bench and cushion, adding woodgrain texture to the legs. Next up was stamping, embossing and colouring the cat and monstera before die cutting them, as well. I also added a bit of floor to the white panel, sponging the lighter colour before adding a few darker marks using a stippling brush. Added the sentiment and put everything together!
Hope you will come and help ATSM celebrate its 9th birthday!

Just too cute! That little kitty is adorable!
Such a cute scene! Love the lil cat!
Such a gorgeous card, Lindsey - your little kitty is so sweet and I'm a sucker for a punny sentiment. Love the extra details like the wooden legs and the way you created the floor. Definitely worthy of the special celebration!
Take care.

Your card is simply adorable. I love this scene you have created. And, thanks so much for the visual reminder of all the amazing stuff in that cat and plants kit I HAD to have. You have inspired me to pull out that kit and make something.
