Cat Tree

Colorful Kitties

Hi scrappers! This week I bring you a layout featuring my kitty who loves lounging in the cat tree all day. She was particularly lazy and cute this day with her front leg dangling so I snapped a photo.

I started with some pastel tree paper from the Shingle Little by Little stack. I had no idea what I was going to do with this paper at first. It seemed to whimsical and childlike for the fall foliage photos I have and the colors didn’t really match. It ended up working perfectly here where I didn’t have a photo of a literal tree, but a cat tree.

I used some handmade paper that has some large wood particles in it. It added some nice texture but rubber cement absolutely does not work on it because it soaks it all up like a sponge. I used adhesive dots and mounting foam to tack down a photo frame from a Heidi Swapp ephemera pack and some butterfly trim that I cut into a couple pieces. I also used some Color Study stickers and Sweet Rush ephemera, both by Vicki Boutin and various stickers and embellishments by Amy Tangerine, Art C and Momenta. The title was made with some sparkly newsprint alpha stickers by Sticko. I added some little kitty brads by Eyelet Outlet to finish.

This page was made for Becky Fleck challenge 297 over at A Cherry on Top Crafts. I used one big picture and a picture frame rather than three smaller ones.

This page was also made for the 3 in a row challenge at the Cherry on Top message board. I ended up getting 3 in a row twice with Any Shade of Green, Free Space, 2 or More Photos and then Decorative Frame, Free Space and Journaling Strips.

That’s all for this week. Thank you for visiting and I will see you next time with a new scrapbook layout!
