Cat ATC Cards

These are my contribution to an ATC swap I did recently. Had to make 5 cards with a cat theme.
Had no preset idea of design when I started but they just developed as I used materials at hand. Pictures from back of a calender, used stamping, collage, ribbon and cat quips from a page of stickers I found at the bottom of the craft box. Was an enjoyable project to do.

Chocolate Rules book














Chocolate Rules book.
Every one loves chocolate and this card included a couple of chocs taped to the insides with a collection of funny chocolate quotes.
Saw original idea on SCS but made mine smaller with quotes just found on the net.
Has a belly band to hold it closed decorated with a velum flower.

Waterfall album


Waterfall Album
Pull tab and pages flip over to show photos. Found this neat tutorial at http://www.scrapbook-crazy.com/how-to-make-a-waterfall-scrapbook.html
The album is about 6" by 6" and was easy to make. I think heavier card for the pull tab would make it sturdier. Would hold up to 10 photos.

Little brag book




Matchbook Style Mini Album

Size is about 4" x 2 1/2"
6 pages with DP and cuttlebuged embellishments.
Thinking of making these to sell at a craft market as they are quick to make and look cute. Just need to get a heavy duty stapler that can handle 6 sheets of card.

Cards



Two Cards I made today. Farmer card is coloured in with water colour pencils. Ink got where it wasn't meant to so improvised, cut of a corner and folded over a piece of card as if it was meant to be like that. Turning a mistake into a positve. Floral card also coloured in water colours. Inspired by a card I saw in SCS
