A Dandy Lion Hello

When this cat from the Airmail set just happen to fit inside this flower made from the Sundial stamp, I immediately thought of a lion’s head.  The overall shape also reminded me of a dandelion.  But, in this case, a Dandy Lion!


You can see how the flower and stem are part of the Sundial stamp in this post here.

All those wonderful cardstocks are from Penny Black’s Mix & Match collection.  Great colors! 

Here are a few quick details for this card….
  • Stamp the sentiment on a 2 5/8 x 3 ¼-inch piece of white cardstock with black ink and heat emboss with clear powder.
  • Mat with a 2 ¾ x 3 ¼-inch piece of rust cardstock and mount with dimensional foam to a 3 x 3 ½-inch tan card.
  • Color cat with Copics and mat with a flower colored with Fired Brick Distress and Peeled Paint Distress inks.  (Flower details linked here.)
  • Adhere with dimensional foam to a 5/8 x 2-inch piece of yellow cardstock that has been edged with Scattered Straw Distress ink.
  • Attach to the front of the prepared card.

Thank you for visiting.

Have a dandy day,
Elizabeth
