Hello friends!  The card I will be posting today is in honor of my dear, sweet friend, Korin Sutherland, owner of Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps.  The ladies on the Creative Teams at Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps will be celebrating in a special way, so we hope you will join us for a day filled with special offers and a fantastic giveaway!  Be sure to check out the details at the following social media venues:

As many of you know, Korin loves her fur babies so here is a birthday card made especially for her:

Creative Nugget: The current Mojo Monday sketch was used for the design of this card.  Cat paws from the Kitty Love stamp set were randomly embossed over the top 2/3 of the card front and then sponged with Antique Linen, Brushed Corduroy, and Ground Espresso distress inks.  The cats from the same set were stamped at the bottom.  Sentiments from the Kitty Love set and the LOL Cats set were white embossed and then stamped again with Archival ink to create a shadow on the square panel.  It was then sponged with the same inks.  Next, a piece of designer paper from my scrap box was added.  Finally the kitty from the Valentine Critters set was colored with Copic Markers and cut with the matching Valentine Critters Die.  The sentiment was curved on the block to match the curve of the circle.  A couple of hearts and some rhinestones finish the card.

Here are the stamp and die sets from the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Store used to make my card:
