Pussy Cats Wedding Wishes

Pussy Cats Wedding Wishes
Made this card for a Malay colleague whose is getting married this Saturday. However, as the lunch reception is out of state, I would not be joining. Thus, I made her a card instead.

I always like Lawn Fawn critters set as I can always mirror the critters to make couple which is great for wedding wishes cards. The mirror cat, which is the female cat is stamped on a yellow card stock using Chari Moss' stamp on stamp mirror stamping and trimmed accordingly. The original cat, which is the male cat is stamped on an orange card stock and trimmed. The tree is paper pieced as well using green card stock and kraft card stock for the branch.

Close-up : The scene
On a square white card stock, the tree and cats are stamped accordingly. The sky and grassland are made up using distress ink and technique. Then, the tree and cats are paper pieced accordingly. The sentiment is stamped onto the tree bunches. The cats are added some 'make-up' to define which is male and female whereby some diamond gems are added to the female cat's neck and some pink blushes to the face. A red pearl heart is substituting the 'o' in the sentiment to give some dimension to the card.

Close-up : Hearts border
A cream card stock is trimmed and punched with some hearts border on the left edge. The hearts border will substitute the ribbon as on the sketch. On the right edge, some lines are score to give some textures. It is attached onto a purple card base as in the sketch.
Close-up : The scoring lines

Close-up : The yellow square faux stitching
A yellow square is faux stitched using black marker and attached onto the card as in the sketch follow by the scene made earlier.

After finishing the card, I realized that I only use Lawn Fawn stamps and it suits the Lawn Fawn CHA Winter 2013 Challenge guidelines. Thus, I decided to make another one to enter the challenge. Anyhow, I still put the second card for sale in case I did not get picked.

Hi - this is a great wedding card and I love your idea for mirroring the image so you made a pair! Thanks for sharing your card at The Crafty Pad last week in our "Stitching" challenge. Sorry I'm late in commenting but I got ambushed by life last week!
