Smile and Be Happy

Another of my quick notecards (I do like to keep a few of these in my card box) and this one has been made for the If You Give a Crafter a Cookie challenge (I was inspired by the cat and the colour pink).  I'm also entering A Gem of a Challenge 'One for the Girls/Ladies' and Crafty Hazelnut's Patterned Paper Challenge.

Card blank: 6" x 4" white matt
Image: Lili of the Valley 'Lili's Die Cuts Kitties'
Stamp: From the Heart Sentiment Stamps (magazine freebie)
Ink: Versafine Onyx Black
Card: Black matt
Paper: Lili of the Valley 'Heartfelt'
Other: Pink enamel dots

I trimmed the pink paper and layered it onto black card.  The kitten was already die cut but had a thick white border so I fussy cut leaving a small white border around the edge.  I put the panel into my MISTI and laid the kitten on top so I could line up my stamp.  After removing the kitten I stamped the sentiment onto the paper and then attached the panel to the card front.  I shaped the kitten and attached it with Pinflair glue down the centre to give some dimension.  To finish I added three small enamel dots to the top corner of the card.
