Reanimated Frame Card

Yeah, that's right - more little L's!!!

If you want to see how I made this little Stampin Up! frame, click here.

I decided to keep this card simple. It features Sweet Stems from the NEW CATALOG! It has such clean lines and great details that I thought I should just SIMMAH DOWN NAH on the embellishments for a change.

There's not even GLITTER!! EEEK.

I colored the flower with Pacific Point Blue and Summer Sun and my blender pen.

I just squished my ink pad to get the lighter yellow and used drops of reinker to get the more intense yellow.
Oh - PS - I discovered that a mysterious pain in my left, double jointed thumb, was from squishing my ink pads. It got really bad for a while. My tip? Squish them between your palms, not your fingers!!

Pray for my little beasts today during their spays :( Look at em - they're just BABIES.

Okay, maybe this is how they look now, but they look like that in my mind.

  3. Oh, what adorable babies! I often look at my kitty and imagine her as a child.

    And I always use my palms to squish my ink pads. My thumbs would totally collapse under the pressure. ;-)

  4. Lydia,
    I absolutely love your blog and check it every day. Not only for all your wonderful creative work, but also because I love your two cats. I have two also adorable cats named Wolfgang and Ludwig. They came through their "operations" just fine and I'm sure your babies will as well.

  7. They grow up so fast, don't they! Good luck at the vet, I know you will be as stressed out as they are.

    I love the idea of the brackets!

  8. They will come home and give you the look "how could you do this to us" but you are the mom and have to make those tough calls. :)
