You can check out the entire new Fall and Winter Impression Obsession catalog ---> CLICK HERE!
 Of course this little black image called out to me right away. Love the silhouetted kitty with the scene in the background. A simple card layout and simple color scheme made for a quick card. I used just one layer of printed paper and pulled the colors from that to keep the same tone through the image.
 Very simple coloring here... a few Copics to add some soft color. 
A simple black bow and three little brads were all the embellishments that I added.

  • Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Versafine Onyx Black

Beautiful. Your choice of colours is amazing!

Stephanie said...

This is colored so well. It's amazing how different it looks until you mat it and put it on top of some patterned paper. Just beautiful!

Katie said...

What a neat stamp image! I bet a lot of people can relate to the gourde birdhouse though, my mom made me one. :) Funny he drew a whole cat this time with a hook tail too. I love that you used sepia and grey tones. Really great. Thank you for sharing.
