There are lots of exciting happenings at The Cat's Pajamas including a brand new website and a new blog! And top it off today is the first day of The Cat's Pajamas Sneak Peeks. We have seven days of previews so be sure to check The Cat's Pajamas blog everyday to see who is on the schedule. There are seven fun new stamp sets and three new CutUps so we have a lot to share with you. Today we are introducing Peace, Joy & Penguins.
It is also TCP Tuesday. This month the challenge is an anti-embellishment one - you can use a maximum of two embellishments but they cannot be buttons, twine or gems!
I started out by creating my tag base first cutting the edge of a piece of white cardstock with the also new for this release Celebration Toppers CutUps. I then cut the piece into a tag shape so that the cutout ran up the left edge. Next I stamped the Peace, Joy & Penguins image onto Copics X-Press It cardstock and colored with Copic Markers. I used the matted image as the centerpiece to the tag, just adding an additional strip of patterned paper with a small heart at the top. After attaching the tag piece to the card background panel, I repeated the same strip of paper behind the sentiment which was stamped with Ranger Archival ink(Vermillion). I cut a heart using the Heart Trio CutUps and topped it with a snowflake left over from another project using the Snowflake Lace Paper CutUps, slipping it underneath the sentiment. Lastly, I added a couple more snowflakes matted onto small circles for the finishing touch. Although I normally love lumpy embellishments, I am really liking that it turned out so mail friendly.
