From All of Us!

Hey, crafty peeps!!  Laurie here, back as a guest on the blog :).  I know today is Father's Day but I'm actually sharing a birthday card. I had so much fun making this card for my husband.  We have a family of cats, two indoors and eight outdoors so this was just perfect!

The All of Us Stamp Set from Avery Elle is beyond cute. And I admit I bought it for the cats! I used a watercolour set that includes an array of vintage shades and coloured the cats.  The little arms holding the signs kill me. They are hilarious!  I stamped the "happy birthday" and "from all of us" on the signs then used the co-ordinating dies to cut everything out.

To jazz things up, I stamped the Confetti Background Stamp from The Stamp Market onto a white card panel.  And because I couldn't stop there, I used the new Just Stitching Double Rectangles dies from Lawn Fawn.  If you've been on the fence about this set of dies, I highly recommend them. I just know I'm going to be using them a lot, especially if you need to break up white space on a clean and simple cards!

I mounted the white panel onto a kraft card base then foam mounted the cute kitties and sentiments.  I added some Sparkling Clear Sequins for some shine. Even though this was for my husband, I couldn't resist the sequins!

And that's it for me today!!  Thanks for stopping by!!
