There is a DT call over on Sketch Saturday so I thought I'd give it a go. I follow their sketches almost every week and love the cards of the existing DT anyhow..
It's been a while since I really enjoyed making a card as much as this one!! I took the sketch to work and thought about it and drew it out at lunchtime.This is also how I actually drew the original sketch of the kitten! It came to life on my sketch pad over lunch at work,too...
I used the "Kitten at Wall" stamp from my newly released range A Passion for Stamps which you can find in the side bar but made a Christmas present in place of the "wall" and coloured it with Promarkers.
The papers are from the Kars X-mas collection and Jesse Edwards. I have added little bits of glitter paper to catch the light.
The corners of the background have been rounded with a Martha Stewart doily border punch and the grey card from the Paper Mill shop has been run through the Cuttlebug with a Swiss Dots folder.
That's it..I'm off to work now and have my pencil and paper at the ready for lunch time!!
Gorgeous Ruth!! Love the colours and your cat is so cute! A super colour combo and I hope you do really well in the DT call! Your cards are just lovely!
