GUARD KITTY




This layout features Chewey, one of my two cats.  I will create another layout soon with Missy.  Chewey believes he is a guard cat - and walks the sun room/porch back and forth in nice weather - chattering at bunnies and birds.

This layout will cover three challenges, as follows:
Scrap Around the World;
13 Arts; and
Mixed Media Monthly Challenge.

The information and links for these 3 challenges follow.
The links are directly below the graphic for each challenge.




FOR THE SCRAP AROUND THE WORLD CHALLENGE, I USED THE TURQUOISE ON MY LAYOUT.








FOR THE MIXED MEDIA MONTHLY CHALLENGE I OPTED FOR INKS AND MISTS; STENCILS AND PASTE; BIRDS OF A FEATHER AND MAY FLOWERS

Layout Details:

Paper:  13 Arts Forever Skies and 13 Arts Polaris 2 from the Starlight Collection
Ink/Mists:  13 Arts Ayeeda Mist Chalk - Indigo; Tim Holtz Vintage Photo for trim
Flowers:  (Unknown - have some loose flowers in a bag - not identified)
Stencil:  13 Arts Mental Vacation Tattered Grid Stencil
Metal Adornment:  The Flying Unicorn - My Garden
Bird:  Prima
Textures:  13 Arts Blue Light Line Grained Grit and 23 Arts Gold Microspheres
Mediums:  Craft Smart Satin Acrylic Paint - Steel Blue mixed with Prima/Finnabair Art Basics Texture Paste; Prima/Finnabair Art Basics Clear Gesso

Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek!
