Crazy Cat Time

Crazy Cats - Addicted to Art
Hello everyone, just stopping by to share my first Crazy Cat creation. I fear I may be using these creatures quite a bit!
I thought I would join in at Simon Says Stamp (Monday challenge) where the theme is Ray of Sunshine and over at Frilly and Funkie we are embossing. 
I inked mustard seed ink through the rays stencil, then stamped my greeting and cat in archival black. I then replaced the stencil and added versamark over the yellow before embossing with clear powder. This then allowed me to colour the rest of the card with scattered straw and fired brick inks.
I used oval dies to create my cuts in the border before mounting on the blue embossed layer.
I stamped and cut another crazy bird and used my water brush to colour before edging with a darker blue ink.
