Industrial Crazy Cat cards

 

We have a new challenge at Country View Crafts for March, chosen by Debs - Industrial. When I created my Tim tag for January I wondered if the idea would work on a card too - so here we are! So it is fair to say it was inspired by Tim and then by me - follow the links if you missed them. Very short of photos today but here is how it started:

Foil on card, emboss, add paint, let dry or wipe when nearly dry, sand a little!

My cat is stamped in versamark and embossed with clear powder before covering in black ink. The rest is just inked and torn layers. 

Here is number two!

Not quite sure who is receiving these yet, although I do have one person in mind - but they were fun to make. I would like to enter:

Be back later in the week with a new challenge at A Vintage Journey and another Industrial project for Country View Crafts.

New Year Goals - Do 12 Tags - Tick!

I made four goals for 2016.... not really a fan of resolutions, they last for a few weeks and then fade for me, so mine were more intentions! 

1. Learn to say no sometimes ---- errrr not acheived yet

2. Eat less sugar------ errrr not going well

3. Exercise more ------ doing well so far

4. Do my Tim tags ------ YAY January done and here we are.

Tim used the chalkboard technique but I had my new Twisted Citron distress ink pad sitting in front of me crying out to be used, so I went a little off piste. I also didn't have the stamp Tim used so I brought out a Crazy Bird as I fear they may end up at the back of the stamp drawer when I get my inky hands on those Crazy Cats. I did use the industrial technique and followed a similar composition to the original (here).
