Cat Sympathy

Welcome
Losing a beloved pet can really be a tough thing to deal with, so I've been creating some 'pet' sympathy cards this month using the new for July stencils from A Colorful Life Designs. 
This one is called:
I paired it up with an older release called FUR

So, here's what I did to create my card.
  • I placed the Paw Heart stencil over a piece of white cardstock and inked it up with some Hickory Smoke Distress Oxide ink.
  • Leaving the stencil in place, I put the Fur stencil over it and inked with some Black Soot DOX ink.  
  • Next, I fussy cut out around the heart and added some dots using a black Posca pen.
  • While that dried, I stamped the sentiment with some Versamark ink and white heat embossed it on black cardstock.
  • I glued a piece of grid paper onto black cardstock, then white, then another piece of black and then onto a 4 1/4" square white card base.
  • I glued the paw over the grid paper and then I used some foam tape to add the sentiment into the corner to finish off my card.

Here are the stencils I used:
