I'm posting cards for the two AAA challenges today as they are linking up and offering prizes as long as you make different cards for each challenge. For AAA Birthday Challenge "Favourite Colours", I've used blue, grey, and black - most of my clothes are in those colours! I still had the Lavinia black cat sitting on my desk so decided to make a another birthday card using it as I have a few friends who love cats. I'm also entering it at the Crazy for Cat Challenge. It seems quite appropriate to be posting a black cat card on Friday Oct 13!
I masked a outer edges of a square and a moon on white cs and then blended Faded Jeans and Chipped Sapphire over it. Then I removed the mask and stamped the botanical images in Iced Spruce. I stamped the cat (with him partly going out of the square) and the sentiment in black. Trimmed with a stitched square die and popped the panel up on fun foam.
And for AAA Challenge "Ink Blending with 3 or more colours", I made this card:
I used various Distress inks to create an ink blended background. I trimmed it down and then heat embossed the delphinium in white. The butterflies are die cut from a piece that I smooshed with Distress Oxide inks.
