Thank You | Hero Arts Stamps, dies and stencil

Hey crafty friend! I’m sharing a fun Thank-You card featuring stamps, dies, and a stencil from Hero Arts. 

I ink-blended the Peonies Bunch color layering stencil over the stamped image in yellow tones. Then, I used the Color Layering Hummingbird stamp and finally, I created the background by ink blending the edges of pink cardstock and stamped the Script Bold Prints cling stamp with white pigment ink.

If you’ve followed me for a while, you may have noticed that when I color cats there is usually a black cat. That’s because, it is based on my two cats. Shadow aka Shiny (on the right) and Olive aka Ollie (on the left).

For my first card, I added Marci to a panel of floral design paper from the Spring Has Sprung paper pack. On this card, I also added one of the cat images peeking out of the Victorian teacup die-cuts. It’s no surprise that this kitty cat is colored like my two kitties!
