Watercolour Cat

Morning, well I got to and made some cards yesterday which is very satisfying. Thought it was time to have another go at a Cuttlebug Challenge. This is what I came up with for Watercolour - Be Inspired Challenge #21 Funny, I normally think my cards look better in photos that real life but this card I think is better in real life.

I used SU Yoyo Yellow for the base card, then strips of SU Real Red and SU Brilliant Blue. Topped this with white paper that I had cuttlebugged with embossing folder 'Bloom'. Before embossing used watercolour pencils to colour each circle and then added a daub of water from a paintbrush. Then put the white paper into the embossing folder and cuttlebugged. I like the brightness and how the colours blend. I then created the cat by tearing paper to shape and adding small cut out triangles (fiddly). The cat came from Angie Parkins.....I saw her cat in a magazine I have. The cat needed something to play with so I rolled up a little ball fo wool for him. Finished the card by layering the Letraset rub-on saying onto SU Real Red and SU Brilliant Blue.
