The Cat's Pajamas August Sneak Peeks

It's The Cat's Pajamas Sneaky Peek Week!  It's all about birthdays with two new stamp sets and four new dies. The Birthday Set CutUps is a free-with-purchase die set. All the new products will be released on August 28 in the TCP store.

I am kicking off the first of seven days of Sneaky Peek week. Each member of the design team will be taking turns sharing creations. Check The Cat's Pajamas blog everyday to see who is on the schedule. So let's get this party started!

The crazy cats are back with the new Let's Party set. I stamped one of the cat images onto Neenah cardstock at an angle and colored with Copic markers. I used the new to the shop Balloon Frame die to create a cutout on a white linen cardstock panel. I placed the stamped image behind the frame, then used the round balloon dies also from the Balloon Frame set to cut from bright buttercup, hawaiian shores and green parakeet cardstock, positioning over the stamped balloons, two of which overlap the frame. The sentiment was stamped directly onto the panel using hawaiian shores ink. This cat really kinda looks like I do after I party!

This card is a simple one using all diecuts. I cut the tag from patterned paper using the new Wish Tag Duo set. I love this die and I can see me using it a lot. I did not use the cutouts (the duo part). Instead,  I cut the letters using the Big, Little Alphabet and the 2 using the Numbers Plate. I attached the tag to a panel that I embossed with the Numbers Plate using a layer of craft foam for dimension. I cut the party hat and candle using the Birthday Set CutUps. A couple of enamel dots and paper "ribbon" in the tag hole finished it up.
