Here's my card that features Ppinky with Flaffy Kitten.
Ppinky with Flaffy Kitten was resized in PhotoElements and printed onto Neenah cardstock with my laser printer. The image was colored with Copic markers, then die-cut with a die from the Squares Nestabilities die set by Spellbinders. You can't tell from the photo, but her wings and face tat sparkle, thanks to the addition of Clear Wink of Stella glitter pen. Holly Stickles glitter glue was run along the outside perimeter of the image panel and left to dry in a different room over night. Why a different room? So I didn't give in to the temptation to touch the glitter glue to see if it had dried yet, thereby smearing it. Ha! This old dog learned another trick.
But I digressed. Back to the subject at hand...The image panel's mat and flag are patterned papers from a 6x6 pad by My Mind's Eye. The base patterned paper is by Memory Box that I've had forever and two days. Red gemstones finish the card.
The patterned papers were layered according to a sketch from Completely Christmas Challenges.
Here's the sketch so you can decide how I did with it!
