June Swap - Light/Dark

InkyFingeredCat has set up a UK coin swapping group on Facebook - had to join in didn't I?

I have this outline cat stamp so that is where I started.....I punched some light and dark paper coins ..... then stamped some cats onto white paper ....
I cut the papers in half and then attached them to the base coin.   I debated whether to cut up the cats or just stamp one onto the card.  I stamped.  Then I coloured and managed to fit them together quite well.  I added a pc printed sentiment.

For this coin I painted the background and added a strip of blue paper across the centre.  The little birds were freebies from a magazine and just fitted along the centre of the strip.  I drew a 'branch' under the birds and then attached a pc printed sentiment.

I cut a coin from some left over papers and then stamped and embossed the word.  The light blue and the brown just seemed to go together, especially when the brown and white butterfly was added!


I completed an extra one as a Thank You for hosting the swap.  When I saw this tiny photo in my swap - GeckoGalz I think - I knew I had to use it.  I matted it to a grey paper and added a bow.  This was then added to a painted - Cosmic Shimmer Chalk Paint - on which I had stamped and embossed the word DREAM.

My returns were accompanied by this sweet tiny card.....




Thank you Catherine and also for a great swap out.
