Cat Tag

CAT TAG

Hug Your Cat Day


Today is hug your cat day. I love my cats very much. But my favorite is Toby the Tiger. Toby was a cat that was abandoned by his mom. A friend of mine who is a vet tech was called out to rescue him and his 3 other siblings. She bought him to me because she knew i wanted another cat. she said he was special, and boy was he. He has 7 toes on his front feet and one extra claw on his back feet. I saw them and knew his name should be Toby the Tiger. He started out fitting in my hand, but now he is 25 lbs. and 15 inches tall, the size of a small dog. He is such a love bug. When I decided to do this project, I thought of Toby and how can I make something about my cat. Toby loves to be held and hugged a lot. Because today is Hug your cat day I had to make a tag for him.

This is the supplies you will need.
1. Chip board (Infinity Engraving)
2. scissors  3. Mod Podge  4.  paint brush
5. Cardboard (back of paper packs)
6. Paints   7. Stickles (2 colors)
8. Ribbon ( 3 different colors)
9. Papers of your choice 10. doily 



I first painted the chipboard. Then let it dry added the stickles to the Big letter C and to the edges of the heart. 

I then cut out my cardboard to the size I wanted 4 1/2 "x10". Then the solid lavender paper the same size. The flower paper was cut to make a border around the edges was a 1/4 " border. I then Mod Podge the lavender paper to the cardboard and the flower border. I then Mod Podge the doily down. Then let it dry for 10 min. and did another layer of Mod Podge, let it dry for 15 min. more min. Glued down down the chipboard saying and the picture of myself with my cat using the Mod Podge. Put one more layer of Mod Podge over it all. Let it dry and glued down the flower, and punched a hole in the top and added the ribbon to the top. You can get the Chipboard from Infinity Engraving.
