The Cat’s Pajamas Sneak Peek: Year of the Rat
It’s Day #7 of The Cat’s Pajamas January sneak peeks! Today, it’s all about the rat!
According to the Chinese zodiac, 2020 is the Year of the Rat. The Year of the Rat set is ready to celebrate! All four seasons are covered and three little (adorable) rats are included to make sure the year is indeed all about them. I’m not a rat in the Chinese zodiac. I’m a rabbit. What about you?
I went with a winter themed design this time, perching the little critter on a stitched mound of snow. The stitching was created using the Clouds & Balloons Cut Ups Die set. The little mouse and coffee cup were stamped, colored with Copic markers and cut out using the coordinating dies to the set before being popped up with foam adhesive. The snowflake is from the Penguin Christmas set and was stamped and fussy cut before being popped up over the rat’s nose with foam adhesive. A little clear Stickles was applied to add some sparkle. The sentiment was stamped in black ink and the design was complete.
Be sure and comment each day of sneak peeks for your chance to win a $10 gift voucher to the online store!
