Not Postman Pat’s But Still a Black and White Cat

 

Not Postman Pat’s But Still a Black and White Cat. Today is another Inspire.Create.Challenge day, and we have a Colour Challenge for you. And the colour challenge is……Well, here’s the thing, do Black and White count as colours? If you do a Google search you will find that, technically, they are not. But, Black and White is today’s challenge. This is my project.

Nine Lives Black and White Cat for Inspire Create Challenge #04

 

As last week’s project featured a dog, I felt it was only fair if this week featured a cat. I chose the ‘blotchy’ cat as we have a cat with very similar markings, so it seemed right. In the video I share a few tips and tricks for making sure your images and the punch line up properly, so if for no other reason, you may want to take a look at that.

Nine Lives Black and White Cat for Inspire Create Challenge #040

Having decided to use a Whisper White Card Base, so then took a look at all the Basic Black embellishments and ribbons I have to add to the card. I embossed the Black Mat using the Subtle Embossing Folder. Not wanting to overload the White Mat, I added some gentle texture with one of the Artisan Textures stamps. I love these stamps as they add just a little ‘something’ to break up a plain background.

I decided that ribbon would be too much with such a small image, so pulled the mini sequin trim instead. A quick zigzag across the page was just the look I was after. But I did want to add something else, not much, just something. Then I remembered the that I have a pot of Metallic Sequins and that this includes black. Perfect. A few drops of Multi Purpose Liquid Adhesive and with the aid of my Take Your Pick tool, the sequins were in place.

Spring is definitely arriving at Old Stables Craft Spring is definitely arriving at Old Stables Crafts HQ. We have blossom, primroses, hellebores, violets and more. Taking a break from my usual routine means I have time to be thankful for the small things I sometimes miss.
