PRETTY KITTY UPCYCLED CONTAINER | with Karen

It's spring time up here in Calgary. My first blooms are out on my pasque flowers so I decided to honour the occasion with a project inspired by flowers! So it's a good thing there is an amazing new stand alone die cute set called Thanks a Bunch from Doodlebug. Filled with amazing blooms that can be layered, pretty leaf shapes and even some birds, this set will have you seeing flowers everywhere, even if it isn't spring time where you are.

   

I decided to feature the die cut flowers together with the new Pretty Kitty collection and upcycled a clear container that I had been saving.

 

I cut out the blooms using the Rainbow textured cardstock, keeping each one somewhat monochromatic. I then attached them to the top of a paper wrap that I create with the Pretty Kitty 12x12 paper with some foam adhesive for some more dimension.

   

 And while the project is definitely heavy on the flowers, I also wanted to play with the kitty theme so I added a few sticker elements both on the front and the back of the wrap. I finished it off with a sentiment from the Chit Chat pack and I was all set. The whole thing slides off the container easily so I can fill it with treats. Now, what to fill it with?

   

 Well, whether or not you have blooms where you are, I hope these ones brought a smile to your face today! Thanks for stopping by! Hugs,
