Today's card features a couple of kitties from the 'Forever Friends' set by Anita Jeram for the Colorado Craft Company. I stamped them on to a snippet of watercolour paper, along with one of the sentiments in the set, then coloured them using watercolour pencils. I used one of my circle Nesties to cut out the image, then cut a matching scalloped circle mat from a snippet of kraft card. I used a snippets of heart covered papers, from a couple of different pads for the background - the pink one is from the 'Happy Colours' pad from The Works, and the green one is from the 'Vinatge Dreams' pad by Craft Sensations. I distressed the edges a little, then added some faux stitching using my CutterBee Bug and a black gel pen.
