Cat in Window

 

Hello! For those of us who have pets, we know how hard it is when we lose them, especially when they are young ones. A friend of mine just lost her 4 yr. old black cat to an illness. She asked me to make her a card that she wanted to give to the kind Vet who came in on his day off to handle the matter.  Here is the card I made for her.

I began with creating a 5x5 base card in white card stock. I added a layer of GKD Dusty Sage card stock which had been embossed with a Darice EF. The casement window was cut with a Poppy Stamp Grand Madison Window die in white card stock. The window valence was created using a Cheery Lynn Border Carnivale die and the wallpaper was some digital patterned paper that I had on hand. The window, wallpaper and valence were assembled and adhered to each other and then the completed window scene was popped onto the base with dimensionals.

The cat was cut in black card stock with a Poppy Stamp Large Sitting Cat die, positioned and adhered in the window. I added a dot of green with a Gelly Roll pen to create an eye on the cat's face. The leafy sprigs, cut with Poppy Stamps Leafy Sprig die, were adhered to the window. The butterfly was cut with a die from Memory Box Butterfly Delights and adhered to the sprigs.

As a final step, my sentiment was computer generated on white card stock and then cut with a die from Spellbinders A2 Distressed Edges and popped on to my card with dimensionals. This completed my card.

I hope you enjoyed this project. Thanks for visiting and please join my blog and become a follower to be notified of any new posts.
