I actually used peel-off stickers!

If you are looking for the Ezee Pzee blog hop, then please scroll down to the earlier post.

I quite addictively buy these peel-off outline stickers but then rarely use them (a crafter buying something & then not using it??? How odd). Anyway, I pulled my stack of stickers out and challenged myself to use some. I love the Midnight Madness sketch for this week and decided that these small-sized cat stickers would be perfect.
I wanted a really dimensional look so I adhered the middle cat sticker onto green card and then took a second copy of the sticker and laid it on patterned paper. After cutting out the patterned cat, I was able to paper-piece it together with the first sticker. I did the same with the vines - putting the stickers on patterned paper and then cutting them out. I didn't have any buttons the right colour so I took 2 white buttons and gave them an uneven colouring with a Copic marker.

I'm really happy with how this worked out - I may just use my stickers and thus justify (sort of) my purchase of so many! LOL.
