Great cat images. I haven't seen that technique used in ages, and this is a fantastic example.

The rich blues and golds give these cats such striking personality, and the cloisonne effect adds incredible depth and shimmer that pulls the eye right in. I love how the magazine textures create those unexpected patterns across each figure, and your fussy cutting is so clean that the shapes look crisp and intentional against the linen card base. The whole piece feels lively, artistic, and beautifully balanced.

The faux cloisonné (I love that technique, still have the first card I made with it) is a brilliant way of adding fun colour to those Laurel Burch cats.
