Ever since I was a child, I’ve just adored cats. So when the Love Cats stamp set came out, of course it was first on the list! It’s a particularly cute set with playful images that are somewhere between cartoon and realistic.
I designed this project to teach at the Auckland Extravaganza event, which I teach with a few of my fellow Creative Inkers Team members. Join us for the next event!
I wanted to use all three adorable cat images, so stamped all three on stitched circles from the Stylish Shapes die set.
For the sample pictured above, I used Memento Black ink. I made more versions with the other colors of the In-Color Twine, and black embossed the cats instead. This made them shiny and really dark black for a little more texture and contrast.
Adding a fun ball of yarn is really easy, and adds a bit of fun and texture to the cats. As mentioned above, I used all five of the colors of the In-Color Twine for variety. All of them looks great, but in the classes where I taught this one, the Parakeet Party (lime green) was by far the most popular.

Oh that is SO kind! Thank you so much!!! xx
Thanks so much for sharing this lovely card. Could I please ask how you did the tail of the cat on the right of the card? Did you add a fussy cut tail where it extends past the edge of the circle? I am planning to make this for my daughter’s birthday, she will absolutely love it!
