This is Graham
He is a foster cat staying with us and he is a mess....
Graham says love me pet me love me pet me love me pet me love me pet me ALL DAY LONG! He needs a home with an old woman who sits and watches TV all day and wants a cat to sit on her lap for petting.....ALL DAY....Hahahhaha!
So today is kicking off another great Cut It Up challenge!
This time we are "Going in Circles." You must use circles on your project in addition to a die
cut!
I LOVE the picture on the left - the look on Pezza's face is perfect! I used an old sketch from Basic Grey I found online as my kick off point:
I didn't follow it exactly but without sketches I would be lost!
This Itty Bitty stamp by Unity was perfect for this summertime layout! I colored it up using colored pencils - I love adding flavored syrups to my lemonade so that is the way I colored it.
To give it a touch of realism I coated the jar portion with Glossy Accents - Love that stuff!
For my circle elements I used a cut from the Lacy Labels Cricut Cartridge - I cut one at 3.5" and one at 4.5". I added some bits of Waterfall Stickles to give it a little bling!
Come join in on the challenge and see what the rest of the DT girls came up with at Cut It Up!
In addition to the Cut It Up challenge I was also inspired by the following challenges for this layout:
- Splitcoast Stampers - IC406 Inspiration Challenge (colors), WT444 Designer Paper, SIC Crazy Month
- Tammy's Scrappin Corner - Anything Goes
- Creative Cutting Challenge - Anything Goes
- Our Creative Corner - Forgotten Things (Stickles)
I can't believe you colored that with colored pencils! You have some mad coloring skills! Love the additions of Glossy Accents and Stickles. They're great details!
