I have coloured Dexter with inks and twinks, still not brave enough to tackle animals with my Copics (what a wuss I am). I unearthed these papers from the bottom of a pile that I have not touched for ages. I used a Sizzix die to cut some stars (the middle size fits one of the birthday stamps in a Scrappy Cat set perfectly. I used one of the accessory stamps to stamp a star pattern on the large star. Then I wanted some star buttons. I know I have them but could I find them? Could I heck as like. So I heat embossed some star brads with gold embossing powder and used those instead.
Recipe:
Stamps: Motivet Dexter and Scrappy Cat Birthdays set
Papers: Dovecraft (I think)
Tools: Sizzix Stars die, SU Ticket Corner punch
Embellies: Star brads from an ancient QVC kit, Raffia Ribbon from Hobbycraft
