I made this card for today's Featured Stamper challenge. Kittie is our hostess and she has chosen Chris (aka fargets) as this week's featured gallery. As soon as I saw this card I knew I had to make it: Potted Kitty by fargets at Splitcoaststampers. I love the pink and red color combination Chris used, and I love this sweet little kitten image.
The red cardstock I have has the wrong tones in it to go with pink so I chose a rose pink instead. I am using a new-to-me Penny Black stamp set and I was anxious to ink one of them up. I am making this for my friend Donna who adores Penny Black animals. I stamped and colored the kitty with copic markers, added sakura sparkle pen to the dots on the heart and whiskers, then I fussy cut him out. Die cut the word love and glued it between this handsome feline's paws.
I wanted to use this gorgeous background die cut that is a gift from DebbieInOC - thank you Debbie. This turned out to be the perfect size and detail I needed for this card. Plus, Donna LOVES bling and this was the ideal die cut for adding bling to. Added diamond dot sparkly vinyl stickers to the die cut background piece, glued this to a rose pink panel and added to the card front.
Congratulations Chris on being selected as this week's Featured Stamper. Your gallery is gorgeous and I really enjoyed perusing your lovely gallery. Enjoy your week in the spotlight! ~Karen.

This kitty is adorable. I love how you added the love die cut on top of the heart. Those tiny details make the cards special. Great job --Chris (fargets)

Oh Karen, you used that die cut perfectly! I love the bling you added and it is the perfect backdrop for that adorable cat. I know you are going to use that Penny Black set a bunch. And your gray kitty looks great in rose pink. Love the polka dots. So cute. Donna will absolutely love it.
