Le Chat Noir

 

I love the art-poster type rubber stamps. Frantic Stamper has a really nice collection of them.  I have one called Chat Noir (black cat) that I wanted to use on a card.  Instead of stamping my image in black ink, I used VersaMark and white embossing powder on a dark purple card stock.  The white embossing powder was able to capture ev ery little detail of my stamp, even the tiny writing!  I colored the cat with Distress Stickles Glitter in Walnut Stain. 
I mounted my image on black suede paper and attached to my card base.

Moustache Birthday Card

 

I am seeing a lot of moustaches and top hats.  I found some thin dies by Sizzix that included these and purchased them 

 

I love how this card came out. the moustaches are so cute!  I attached the moustaches with glue dots just in the center. Then I curled the ends so they would stick out.  Of course I cut them out of black cardstock.

 

The vertical piece on the left is a piece of VERTIGO FILM cut and colored with alcohol inks.  Vertigo Film is this really cool film (kind of a thick plastic) with designs in it that cause it to look 3D.  The films come in different patterns.  The one I have above is called pebbles.  The photo doesn't really do it justice.  It's rather slick.
