Cat Lover Birthday

Toni here with you today and what a bright and happy birthday card do I have for you.

I created the background first, sponging the entire panel with Distress Oxides. Then I used the Visible Image Count Me In stencil and a wet wipe to wick away some of the color beneath. I think of it like a color sponge.

Next I sponged the Aall and Create Starry Night Stencil, again with Distress Oxide for opacity. I spattered the lot with water.

I used one of the That's Crafty ATC Coins Set 3 images with Versafine Onyx Black to add some nice black curlies to mimic the Aall and Create Cat Lover's hair.

To complete the background, I masked the Darkroom Door Birthday stamp and embossed a few words. Isn't that fun? I'm going to keep this idea in mind for my crossword-loving friends.

I watercolored the Aall and Create Cat Lover images with Zigs. I mounted the girl on foam tape. Love!
