Clever Cats Birthday

The upcoming Mini Catalog has awesome Fall and Winter products as expected. But there are a few that include stamps that work anytime of year. The Clever Cats is one of those stamp sets. And since I love cats…..you know I had to have it!

Stamp Set(s)

Normally I would say I used a certain set at this point. However for this card, I combined a few different sets I started with the Clever Cats stamp set and this Fat Cat! He reminds me of my male cat, who is a bit on the round side!! I had just used the cake plate from Sweets & Treats stamp set and when I saw it, the idea was born.

With the cake plate, and a little masking, it allows Fat Cat’s tail to hang over perfectly. This also led me to the sentiment. I immediately thought of him eating, or pushing off, the cake. I knew Way To Goat had the perfect sentiment. The “I got you a cake” along with the inside sentiment “But I ate it”. The perfect pairing for this card.

Paper and Details

I chose the greens for the card more from not having used green colors in a while. The DSP is from Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper. It is paired with Just Jade cardstock and a thin layer of Smoky Slate cardstock.

To give the sentiment a bit more presence, I used the Ornate Frames to layer it. I love the shape. It is almost like a plaque on the wall. And the cat would be happy to announce what he had done! The finish of the 2021-2023 In Color Jewel is all this one needed.
