The Most Wonderful Time of the Year by Donna Gray
00:00
Hi
everyone,
Donna
here today with a card showing the wonder of a kitten’s first Christmas ;)
What to do:
Use
a sheet of Strathmore Mixed Media paper cut to fit a 5x5 card.
I
drew the kitten but I’d highly recommend the Katzelkraft set of cat stamps for
this instead…… or the dog set of course if you prefer!!
Once
the image is drawn or stamped, start to colour in with your Distress markers,
use a water brush to make sure they are nice and diluted for that watercolour
effect.
Stamp
the hat and scarf separately onto more Strathmore paper with black Archival ink
and colour them too with the markers, fussy cut out adhere to the kitten.
The
snowflake stamp is my own but I’ll list another one in the supplies used
section for you that you can use instead.
The
finishing touch is to draw a line with a fine black pen under the kitten and
then spread a layer of Faber Castell bead and glitter gel to get the glistening
snowy look. Make sure you let the bead gel air dry though as the heat gun will
ruin it!! Mount onto black card and then white cardstock.
There
you have a little kitten so looking forward to wrecking the Christmas tree the
most wonderful time of the year.
Oh and if you’re curious about this little kitty then pop by my blog later and all shall be revealed ;)

Hope you like it
