Cat with Balloon

 I am determined to use the goodies once again from the advent calendars this past year and so today I brought out the cat die and sentiment for this card for our great niece.  I cut the cat from some paper I had that I smooshed ink onto, thought it would make a great spotted cat :) The background is a scrap of pattern paper that I stenciled the clouds onto and the heart is from another scrap.

  3. That inky-spotted kitty is absolutely delightful—such a clever way to add personality and texture! The stenciled clouds create the perfect dreamy sky for the balloon to float through, and I love how the patterned paper heart adds a sweet touch of whimsy. A beautiful blend of scraps and creativity, this card is pure joy.
