Sweet feline

The second kitten I made is stitched with shimmering yarn, and kept in white shades except of the big amber eyes and the snout around which I placed a couple of tiny pearls.
Unlike in the brown cat, I used coloured pencils only to highlight the eyes, snout and ears.
To add a little bling, I used a tiny golden sticker around the stitched image. As the image here is a little larger, I punched the corners and used a few pearls there, too.
In one of the corners, I put a couple of roses. The background paper is new in my stash, and even though it features geometric shapes, the're not too prominent, which makes a nice match to the flowers and the cats' eyes.
The quote from scribblesdesigns is hidden on the inside.

Did you ever wonder about how to really confuse a cat? A glass roof works about perfectly :)

  2. I don't think I have ever seen such amazing stitching on a card. The effect is very alluring. Lots of texture and it is also CAS. So glad that you joined us at the Mod Squad Challenge.
