2016 Christmas cards - Day 6 - Sleepy kitty


This stamp made an appearance in last year's cards as well, as it's one of my favourites. It's a House Mouse stamp and I love the mouse taking a nap on top of the sleepy kitten's head.

I made two cards in a similar way, I keeping things simple.

For both cards I stamped the image and watercoloured it, with pencils for one and paints for the other, then mounted them on red card.

For the smaller card I stuck on a sentiment and some gold ribbon to finish the card.

For the large square card I stamped a sentiment and mounted that on the same red card, and used strips of the same card on the side of the card base, which is embossed and has a satin finish.

The finished card is very simple with the image being the focal point.
