Hot Air Kitty From Sandra Caldwell

Well, you all know I love me some kitties and Sandra Caldwell's are some of my faves.  Today is new release day and here is #1684 Hot Air Kitty.  Since I knew I would be showcasing him today, I was thrilled to find some fun shaker balloons at Michaels to complete my card and even happier to be able to use the Outlawz Wednesday sketch.  WooHoo!

Here's the cool sketch for this week.

Here's a closeup of #1684 Hot Air Kitty.  He's colored with Copics with fur detail from Prismacolor pencils and shine marks done with a white gel pen.  He's fussy cut and popped in the circle cut with my Spellbinder's Nesties.  The paw print border is a punch from EK Success.  I swear I have a rick rack punch but do you think I can find it?  The paw prints filled in rather nicely though, I think.  The pretty plaid and striped DP is from Lawn Fawn.

I'll be adding this to the DL.Art July Linky Challenge, SUYP CATS ONLY Furrything Goes(with a CAT, DUH!), 2 Crafty Critter Crazies #4 AG w/ a Critter, Colour Crazy Week 28 AG, Crafty Animals #4 AG, Simply Papercraft #48 AG, CHNC July Patterned Paper challenge AG, Craft Rocket #39 AG, Simon Says Wednesday Use Plaid and Your Scrapbook Place July AG.
