Today I am going to show you how to make a Crazy Cat Lady Starter Kit card - I think we all know one of those people and I certainly am one!
This card just kind of happened on its own by accident when I was playing with the new cat punch. It has been so popular that I thought I would do a blog and show you all how to make it.
I made the card using Stampin'Up! (SU) Chocolate Chip cardstock and a matt of SU Punpkin Pie - Halloween colours

First I made up the cat crate using the SU Wood Crate Framelits Dies and SU Wood Textured Designer Series Paper Stack.
You have to cut 2 matching pieces and make up a full size crate. When the crate is glued together and set, cut it in half longwise so that you have 2 half crates that you can use for 2 cards.
Using the Stampin'Up! Cat punch, cut out several cats from the Designer Series Paper or from any paper. As you can see below, you can use the part bits of the cats (from the edges of the paper) behind the box to look like full cats. No one will notice, and I wont tell
Fold back about 1/4 " on each edge and glue the 1/2 crate to the front of your card.
Add your sentiment with demensionals and on this second card I have added some paw prints from the Stampin'Up! Foxy Friends Stamp Set

Take one half and cut it back on the edges to half again as you want it to lie as flat to your card as possible
