Stamp Review Crew - Love Cats

Welcome to the Stamp Review Crew's LOVE CATS edition! The "Crew" is a group of Stampin' Up! demonstrators from around the world who pick a stamp set or bundle to highlight on the first and third Mondays of each month, with a bonus hop if there is a fifth Monday. If you landed here from Betty's blog, Kitty Stamp, welcome! There are three of us today and, as always, you can click the Stamp Review Crew banner at the top of each post to see the list of participants.

Love Cats is a six piece cling stamp set that was just made for kitty lovers! (I'm looking at you, Betty!) I'm not usually drawn toward cute cartoonish images, but as a cat mom, I just had to get it. Here's why (eight of the nine barn kitties, that are now porch kitties):

My first card features all three of the cat poses. I combined it with the cute Country Gingham DSP and burlap ribbon from the Country Floral Lane Suite.

The cats were die cut with the 1-1/2" square Stylish Shapes die and matted on 1-11/16" square Sweet Sorbet before being adhered to the card.

The center image was popped up and a heart pearl was added to his heart. I say "his" because our black kitty, Binx, is a (fixed) male, so of course this one is a boy. 😊

The second card also features the Country Gingham DSP, along with a strip of Country Floral Lane DSP, and Textured Shimmer Paper.

It's hard to see in the photo, but I added some Clear Wink of Stella to the heart for a subtle added shimmer.

A few black Classic Matte Dots help balance the black mat behind the image (also cut with Stylish Shapes dies).

That's all I have to share for today, so click "Next" to see what Mike at Stampin-Style created, or "Previous" to visit cat-loving Betty again. Thanks for stopping by!
