The Cat's Pajamas July Sneak Peeks



It's The Cat's Pajamas Sneaky Peek Week! We have three new stamp sets and four new dies. The Arrows CutUps is a free-with-purchase die set. All the new products will be released on July 31 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. The oh-so-talented Christine is up tomorrow but you can always check The Cat's Pajamas blog everyday to see who is on the schedule.


First up is a card featuring the super cute new Critter Camp set. I stamped the goofy little dog image in the set onto Neenah cardstock, cut it out with the matching die from the Critters CutUps and colored with Copic markers. I then stamped the second image in black and the sentiment inside it in pure poppy ink and fussy cut out. I attached the sentiment banner to the dog using foam tape. To create a background for the pooch I used the Spring Tag Duo set to cut from soft stone cardstock and subtle gray patterned paper for a tone on tone look. A simple patterned paper strip to the card base and a few matte finish enamel dots finished up a clean and simple card.

Products: The Cat's Pajamas stamps and dies, Doodlebug and MME dp, PTI cs, Doodlebug enamel dots, MFT and PTI ink, Copic Markers
Copics: W00, E81, R20, N1, N3, N7, C00, C1, C3, C5, C7


My second features the new storybook set Oh Buoy. After stamping the image onto Copics X-Press It cardstock, I colored with Copic markers and fussy cut out. I dry embossed the new Arrows CutUps twice onto an iced aqua circle then attached the stamped image onto to it using foam tape. To prepared the background I added a patterned paper edge onto which I stamped the sentiment using wisteria ink. After attaching the image to the card front using a layer of craft foam, I added a couple of arrows cut with the Arrows CutUps and layered with a small enamel dot.

For the last card of the day I started out by cutting the background panel from white linen and soft stone card stock using the new Liners CutUps. We have a new One Liners sentiment set debuting in this release but I went back to an older set Simply Said to stamp the sentiment on the liner strip. Several sentiments from this set will fit onto the strip so you have plenty of options.  I cut the butterfly from mist cardstock using the Lacey Butterfly CutUps and cut the doily from textured cardstock using the Lacy Floral Doily CutUps layering the butterfly on it using foam tape.
