Surprise! You've got Kathi here Thursday instead of my usual Tuesday. I was swamped with social-family-peopley stuff for almost an entire week, so I was running behind and feeling stressed. Luckily, the lovely Cornelia switched days with me which relieved the pressure. Whew! This week the Topflight Stamps is showcasing Katkin Krafts' wonderful stamps. Being me, I had to get the Just Chillin' Clear Photopolymer Stamp Set because it features a zen boho cat, some gorgeous flowers, and a really great sentiment (which I didn't use).
Here's my first card using this great set!
Tuxedo Black Memento Ink by Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko was used to stamp the focal cat image from the Just Chillin' Clear Photopolymer Stamp Set by Katkin Krafts twice — once onto white cardstock and once onto repositionable sticker paper, which was fussy-cut to create a mask.
Copic markers were used to color the wonderful cat and his pillow, then the fussy-cut sticker mask was adhered over the colored image.
A ruler was placed horizontally about 2" up from the bottom of the image panel. Sundance Elements Ink by Lavinia Stamps was brushed over the ruler and the masked image onto the image panel to color the background.
The ruler was temporarily removed and the Profusion Stencil 84 by AALL and Create was placed over the image panel. The ruler was positioned back in place, covering the bottom part of the image panel. Sundance Elements Ink was brushed over the stencil and the ruler to add subtle tone-on-tone pattern to the background.
The stencil was removed and the ruler was moved to cover the top part of the image panel. Pine Elements Ink by Lavinia Stamps was brushed over the ruler onto the lower part of the image panel to add color to the bottom of the image panel.
Using a stamping platform, the "Relax" sentiment from the Relax Sentiments Unmounted Red Rubber Stamp Set KTZ222 by Katzelkraft was positioned facedown on the image panel, then lifted by the platform's lid. A Post-It Note was used to cover the two sentences below the word "relax", Nocturne VersaFine Clair Ink by Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko was used to ink the stamp, the Post-It Note was removed, and the sentiment was stamped onto the image panel.
The stamp was removed and the phrase "Hit the Pawse Button" and "It's your Purrday" stamps from the Kitty Capers Clear Stamp Set by Time for Tea Design were positioned facedown on the image panel, then lifted by the platform's lid, inked with Nocturne VersaFine Clair Ink, and stamped.
The image panel was removed from the stamping platform and heat set. The panel was trimmed to 4.75" x 6.75" and adhered to a 5" x 7" card.
