Catch A Butterfly

Welcome back to Lost Coast Portal to Creativity where Lost Coast Designs and Carmen's Veranda collide to bring you twice the inspiration and double the fun!

Hi to all from Laurie!  For this monthly challenge of More Than Two Legs I am using one of the Katzelkraft stamps now available from Lost Coast Designs.  This is Striped Cat.
I started by stamping my cat onto a piece of card stock that I had colored using Distress Inks.  Simple process that just involved dragging your ink pad across a piece of paper then smudging it in.  For this one I used brown and yellow ink pads.

I then cut out my cat and gave him some google eyes.  My background is a piece of white paper that I stamped with a text background stamp in black ink.  I then used a stencil of circles and lines and used shades of orange, yellow and brown Distress inks.  I overstamped all of that with a couple of other background stamps - lines and some random spots.

I mounted my background paper to a piece of kraft glassine paper then mounted that to a white card base.  I attached my kitty with foam tape.  Final touch was to cut out a little butterfly and attach it with foam tape to appear to be resting on the kitty's paw.

Check out the current challenge More Than Two Legs and join the fun for a chance to win yourself some Lost Coast dollars!!
