What a Blast

How about a little more goodness from The Cat's Pajamas for you today? This morning, I shared my card for this week’s TCP Tuesday challenge, and now I have another TCP card, this time for this week’s Paper Craft Planet sketch challenge, courtesy of Lynn.

I used the What a Blast set on this one. PJ is colored with Copic markers and cut out. When I stamped him, I omitted the pinwheel from the image and instead, made my own using TCP’s pinwheel CutUps die and some patterned paper. I used foam tape to set both PJ and the pinwheel on a piece of cloud patterned paper with a strip of die cut grass along the bottom. The “what a blast” sentiment is stamped next to PJ, just above the grass.

After rounding the panel’s corners, I set it on an Ocean Tides mat. It’s layered on a yellow panel, embossed with a dotted pattern instead of using patterned paper. I wrapped a piece of blue seam binding around the card (it’s been lying on my table forever—it was nice to finally find a use for it!), then layered the panel on an Ocean Tides card base.

You can find all the details on this week’s sketch challenge here—you don’t want to miss out on this one since one lucky participant will win a fun prize . . .
