Nurse Kitty - This Won't Hurt A Bit featuring High Hopes Rubber Stamps

Hello! I hope you're doing well! Today I'm sharing a card made very much in the same vein as another card I shared earlier this week. I was so smitten with the colors and the different elements I used that I wanted to recreate it, but with a little twist (cuz you know I never make the same card twice)! This card features the Nurse Kitty and Won't Hurt stamps from the newest release - Get Well Soon - by High Hopes Rubber Stamps.

You can watch the card process video below or in full HD on my You Tube channel:





I colored Nurse Kitty with my Copic markers. Here are the colors that I used:

Fur: YR 20, YR 21, YR 23, YR 27, & Colorless Blender
Nose and cheeks: R 20
Bag: N 2, N 4, & N 6
Stethoscope: N 2, N 4, & N 6
Hat: R 29, BG 70, & Colorless Blender
Needle: YR 30 & Colorless Blender


I took this opportunity to practice a more advanced (at least for me!) Copic marker technique - coloring fur. I colored with quick, "flicking" strokes to give this Kitty's fur the appearance of fluffy texture. I did my best so I've very happy with it (plus, I colored it like my own orange tabby cat so she's extra special to me!)


I chose to add some texture in the background with an embossing folder and layered a piece of red and white striped paper over top. For some reason, the bow was really giving me some grief. With enough patience though, I was able to stick it through and eventually tie a bow that I could be happy with.


The Won't Hurt sentiment I heat embossed with white embossing powder on black card stock. But I was thinking though, you could totally change up the sentiment to something like "Congratulations" and give this to someone who's graduated nursing school!


Well, thank you so much for stopping by my blog! I love hearing from you, so please leave a comment! I hope you enjoy your weekend, and don't forget to check out the newest Get Well Soon release in the HH shop. Bye!
