You're Invited...TT#87 & Pink Cat Studios

Hello lovely blog friends,

It's time for another fun Tuesday Throwdown challenge!! This week we are being sponsored by the fabulous "Pink Cat Studios" and we have a really fun theme for you try - PAPER TEARING.

I have to admit that I had little clue where to start or what to do, so decided to take some wonderful MME papers, tear them into strips, glue the strips together into a panel and then die cut into an oval shape to make an interesting background for my main stamped image.

I used the 'Rex Loves Cake' digital stamp image. Isn't that little digi dino a cute little critter? I just love how he has taken a bite from a layer of that cake in true monster style!! This little fella just HAD to be green and I gave him a cute brown fuzzy looking tummy and spikes. I had such fun customizing the cake in bright colours and and then colouring his little party hat as well.

I used bracket dies from the Floral Doily Motifs Spellbinders set to frame the top oval and then added gems, red seam binding and button from The Ribbon Reel.

My sentiment is stamped onto Ribbon Tags Trio die by Spellbinders and finished with some green velvet ric rac trim by Making Memories.

I decided to used the following brilliant Deconstructed Sketch No. 40 by Jen Shults:
