creation if I would like to create a similar creation using one of their stamp sets and make a tutorial on it. I responded that I was happy to be asked & would like to do that. I chose the Big Cat stamp set and you can see my tutorial here:
tutorial http://mfpspeedytv.ning.com/page/big-cat-s-jean-pocket-tutorial
When I chose the Big Cat stamp set I was thinking of the saying "don't let the cat out of the bag" and figured I would put a twist on it by using blue jean pocket to put the Tiger into.
Supplies:
blue jean pocket - from hubby's old pr blue jeans
Scotch Adhesive Tape Gun (ATG)
Scotch tape
brad/button
Cuttlebug Animal Prints embossing folder
Memento Tuxedo Black in
Tim Holtz Distress Inks – black soot & walnut stai
4 pieces of cardstock
1 piece of designer paper - Tiger striped
2 pieces of ribbon
Tim Holtz sander
Mark’s Finest Big Cats clear stamp
