Kitty with Books

Hi everyone - I'm back home from my dad's so my photos will be better, hopefully! I watched Craft Roulette Episode #320 tonight and crafted along. I finished after the show, though - I wasted too much time looking for specific items (never found them).


Supplies: Paper - Neenah Classic Crest Solar White;
Spellbinders cardstock; Lawn Fawn & BoBunny patterned
Stamps - Pink and Main April Cat (dies HERE);
Hero Arts Oh Baby (retired);
Scrapbook.com Gina K. SBC Fest kit
Other - Copic Markers; foam tape

Host Mary Gunn had Amanda Stevens (‪@PearBlossomPress‬). Amanda & her hubby own Pear Blossom Press, famous for their light-up products. Amanda was making her 9th appearance on the show and she also collaborates on the summer in-person Craft Roulette events. The wheel wasn't too bad, although I was thrown for a bit on the game element.


  • Project - Z-fold Card: I took an A2 card and folded back the front to form a Z.
  • Colors - Summer Vacation: I used blues for water, greens for grass, and browns for sand. 
  • Element - Game(s): Crossword puzzle paper. 
  • Random - Add a Cat: I used a stamped cat. 

I was going to use a Simon Says Stamp playing card stamp - couldn't find it. Then I thought I had some Scrabble tile ephemera - couldn't find them. Finally remembered some crossword puzzle paper so grabbed that. I had a kitty stamp out from another crafting session so decided to use it. Stamped it, die cut it and colored with Copics. I had stamped a bunch of elements from an old Hero Arts baby girl set & thought the butterfly would be cute on the top book. Colored & fussy cut it. The sentiment was in the stash so I assembled it all and called it done. Here's a standing view:


And here's the card I made with this set on Saturday; it was for Put the CASE in Chaos Episode 5, also featuring Amanda Stevens. I CASE'd both Amanda's & Irene's cards that day. This one was based on Irene's - she had an inkblended background with some sparkle.


Additional supplies: KC & Co cupcake sticker;

Since this was my first play with the kitty stamp, I'll add this card to Darnell's May NBUS Challenge #86.

That's it for today, friends. Thanks for visiting and I hope you have a crafty weekend!!
