Valentine's Day is only a short two weeks away! Although I don't make too many cards for this occasion, I couldn't resist this new image by Gerda Steiner called Love You Kitten. This little cross eyed kitty is super cute! I found the image through another challenge where this card was linked and I knew immediately I had to have it. Luckily, I'm just in time to link up to Gerda's monthly challenge using this image.
To create this XOXO Kitty Card I used last weeks sketch from The Paper Players with a couple of changes. The patterned papers are from the new Love Blossoms paper pad by Stampin' Up! (140548). The image was printed twice on white cardstock. One image was die cut using a stitched circle die by My Favorite Things. The second image was colored with Copic markers, fussy-cut, Stickles and glossy accents were added and then adhered on top of the other image with dimensionals. To pull in the flowers from the patterned paper I stamped and punched two Petite Petal flowers and adhered them to either side of the XOXO sentiment. Two candy dots were added to the center of the flowers and some green leaves were punched using the Bird Builder punch. That's it!
