Right that led somehow to the Prisoner a 1960's cult series here in the UK. I have no idea if American's have ever heard of if or how many Brits will remember it. So an image of a large white ball and a running man while still stuck in my head with the words, "You can run, but you cannot get away." Is probably not going to work as an entry.
Ball as in A large formal social event then, how do you convey that in a CAS card and what message are you sending!?
A Ball Game, umm not a lot of fun in that is there?
So walking it to the craft room totally confused I came up with this.
A tempting ball of wool. Cut a circle in the card from, with the cut out in place stamped t with the Tim Holtz stamp to that one paw is outside the circle. Stamped ball of wool. Coloured images and then lined cut out up carefully attaching it to the card with sticky pads. The white toe is deliberate, my Torti Miss Minx has just one small spot of white on her chest and no where else so I thought this one cold have a white toe.
Trouble is The Prisoner is still running around chased by a big white ball in my head! Thank you CASology hahaha
Now it is very hot and humid, a tiny drop of rain seems to have made it worse so signing off now. Stay safe, Keep well & Have Fun.
Fabulous how you came about this card Zoe and love the white toe of that wonderful cat x.
