I created three different cards to share with you today- let’s get started with the details! For this first card, I started by stamping and coloring the main image from the Spoiled Cats stamp set. I used Lawn Fawn Jet Black and Lawn Fawn white cardstock which is Neenah Classic Crest 80 LB Smooth Solar White Paper to stamp them.
I used the above Copic markers to color the images. You will find them linked below in the cardmaking supply list. With the swatches above you can easily substitute for similar colors, or even a different coloring medium. If you are interested in learning more about Copic coloring, or alcohol marker coloring, be sure to check out my Copic 101 post here.
I colored them to look like 2 of my 3 kitties. Mister Harley is lounging as his little brother Jac is waiting on him- just as he feels it should be!
I then die-cut out the kitties. For the background, I lightly ink-blended Spun Sugar onto a piece of Distress White Heavystock. I then ink-blended Kitsch Flamingo through the Tumbling Heart Stencil from Newton’s Nook. I used blender brushes (that I store in my favorite brush caddy). As always when I use stencils I used the Make Art Stay-tion and whenever I am ink blending I love to use the Ink Stands to hold my ink pads, I also use a small mister bottle filled with Isopropyl Alcohol, to quickly clean my stencils with a Flour Sack Cloth. Have you seen my new *exclusive* Flour Sack cloths?! They are wicked fun and available in my online shop!
I die-cut this background from the largest stitched rectangle from Lawn Fawn’s Outside In Stitched Rectangle dies.
I added some Prisma Glitter with a Quickie Glue Pen to the cats bow ties. Did you know that my kitty Mister Harley loves to wear a bow tie? You can see him in one here. I added a touch of Glossy accents to the cocktail glass. I also added a few heart and glitter circle embellishments from Trinity Stamps.
For the second card, I stamped and coloring the main image from the Lift You Higher stamp set. I used Lawn Fawn Jet Black and Lawn Fawn white cardstock which is Neenah Classic Crest 80 LB Smooth Solar White Paper to stamp them.
I colored the image with the above Copic markers. I then lightly ink blended the background of the card with Lawn Fawn Merman ink. I then ink blended the Newton’s Nook Petite Clouds Stencil with a heavier hand and still Lawn Fawn Merman Ink. I added a touch of Sakura Black Glaze pen to the kitties’ noses and eyes. These two kitties by the way are my boys, Jac and Gus Gus.
For this last card, I stamped, colored, and die-cut the images from the new Stay Pawsitive stamp set. For the background, I lightly ink-blended Butter Lawn Fawn ink on the left side, I then ink-blended the Newton’s Nook Cascading Star stencil over it with Lawn Fawn Sunflower ink. I then gently ink-blended Merman Lawn Fawn ink on the right side, blending into the yellow.
I added a touch of sparkle to the stars with a Quickie Glue pen and Prisma glitter. I added a touch of Sakura Black Glaze pen to the dogs nose.
These stamps were so fun to play with! The illustrations are just so sweet. I hope you enjoyed these 3 cards!

Another amazing release for Anita Jeram, and you make such beautiful cards to inspire us! Thanks for such a detailed supply list too! The coloring on your dog is so spot on that I just want to kiss his nose!!!! LOL
Ooh I’m so excited for this kitty release. I’m not normally a puppy person, but this one makes me smile. I love the way you used the stencils for the background. The hearts with the kitties are my favorite. Thanks for sharing.
Your cards are adorable and you always have the prettiest blended backgrounds! I love that you colored the cats like your own sweet kitties 😸!
Your beautiful coloring makes these clever critters come to life! So much fun thank you for sharing!!!
These stamps bring such joy… and your coloring brings them to life!
Your amazing colouring (and thank you for sharing the markers you used!) breathes sweet life into these adorable dog and cat images! An array of smile-making delights! Team Dog for me (although the cats are pretty dang cute, too!).

Hey Jenn, I forgot to list whether I am team cat or dog and although I am a dog person I am totally in love with Mr. Harley so I would say in this instance I am team cat!!
You know that I adore you and your work! I love how you put these adorable stamp sets together Jenn! Nicely done.
Love all the fantastic inspiration!
I love the card with the star background! I would have never thought to do something like that. All of your cards are beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
Love the pink background and how the heads were raised, so cute!
Lovin the star background……this release is awsome…
Your backgrounds are just as amazing as your main images! Love!
I’ve got to say so far my favorite card has been your “I’m not spoiled” card
Hi Jenn. I would love to see Mister Harley, Jac and Gus Gus. They must be fun furry friends. Your cards are so cute, and I like the bright and happy colors you chose. I love the expressions Anita Jeram draws on her critters. Mister Harley is kicking back with his cocktail, while Jac is trying to get him to drink healthy milk instead. I hope he is planning on sharing those sardines. Your Stay Paw-sitive card with the pup is adorable. I love his expression. The “wet” shiny nose is a perfect extra touch. Thank you for adding color charts next to your cards. It’s very helpful.
I like the backgrounds on your cute cards.
Team cat girl here! your cards are awesome! Thank you so much for adding what Copics you used! It is a big help for me when I am trying to figure out how to color the images.
adorable critters – LOVE the cat cards and their fun sentiments
Purrrrrfect backgrounds! Team dog here.
Super cute and furry and fun! Love each card Jenn!
Idk if I choose… I’ll say team dog, but I’m definitely “team puppy’s and kittens” all day every day lol. But I love the doggy card with the gradient background! The stenciling is my favorite 😍.

Lovely cards! The backgrounds really highlight the message of these great images. Love all the detail used!

Your cards are super cute, especially the last one! I love the little images that you stenciled onto the backgrounds!
Love the stenciled backgrounds and the way you colored the images! Adorable cards with these cute critters! Count me in for team cats!
Love love love your coloring!!!!
Anita Jeram is my very favorite and you’ve proved it with your art!
Love your coloring of my very favorite Anita Jeram!
IMPOSSIBLE to pick a favorite- from the release or from these cards!!! I especially love the color transition and blending with the stencil on the last (dog) card! Thank you so much for sharing!
Blessings,
C
