May All Your Wishes Come True

Todays card is in preparation for my youngest sons birthday that is during University Freshers Week in September, hopefully he'll be able to celebrate if things continue to calm down...




I couldn't resist the new MFT collection from Stacey Yacula... its got cats in it, how purr-fect is that for a cat lover?

I only used one image from the set and used the colours from Just Add Ink, colouring the kitty in with my pencils and fussy cutting him out before adding foam pads.




I've used hickory smoke Distress Oxide to colour the 'Happy Birthday' die and stamped the centre with the little streamers stamp from the set in matching colours and popped back in.

The banner sentiment is also from the set and I thought it was nice considering he's got many wishes to come true during this new chapter of his life.

Oh the puddy tat is deliberately on wonky as I tried it straight and it looked too placed and he felt more playful with a slant.
