This month for MidWestStampers the mingle ATC theme is "two colors and/or brads". My recipient is a cat lover, so I thought to play with that theme a bit here. I used the first item in the card function of A Child's Year cartridge to make my ATC base card. Size 5 by 3.5 inches (to fold). I prefer to delete the nick marks for folding from the item with "hide selected line". The cat cutout can be found on the Animal Kingdom cart. I flipped the shape and added it to the scalloped side of the base card at 1.8 by 2.8 size.

The background behind the cat is a custom watercolor background leftover from another project. I stamped a fun kittie background over the front and back of the base card with gold pigment ink and clear embossed that. Stamp is from DRS designs. My brads are two greenish yellow crystal brads from the stash. Some eyelash yarn trapped inside the card and as a tail finishes this nicely.
