After another busy and artistically tiring week at work it was a delight to get into the craft room today. First a look at Challenges for Days to get some inspiration.
So what is this all about? The Cats face is my absolute favourite stamp, it is by PSX dated 1991 and I have 2 just in case something happens to one of them. Stamped in alcohol proof ink and lightly coloured with Chameleon Pens.
The frame is a die cut adhesive, the kind of sheet that is adhesive on both sides. Attached directly on the card to frame the cat image. Cover removed from the top layer and gilding flakes added.
The sentiment well, Cats are my favourite pet, and while I am getting more comfortable around some dogs, at the core I am a cat person. Harley is sixth of six who prefers to be first of one. One of the things I love so much about them is their complete lack of sentiment. Tell a cat you are leaving and you can almost hear it reply "Yeah OK, keep in touch!"
Now here come the challenges.

Wonderful stamped image and lovely card Zoe. My son has a Cat named Cleo that will moan and wail until she gets attention. It's so annoying LOL....but he loves that cat and the cat loves him. Thanks for playing along with us at The Paper Funday Challenges and best of luck in the draw! Donna
ReplyDeleteBeautiful CAS card and frame but love the fabulous stamp.I am more a cat than a dog person -we have two cats and an adopted dog who has major anxiety issues!

ReplyDeleteI can certainly see why this is a favorite stamp. I love your wonderful CAS design that puts it in the spotlight. Thanks so much for sharing with us at As You Like It Challenge!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet face on your stamp, I can see why you love it so much. Had to giggle at your comment about holes in the knee. Cats always seem to ignore me but love pestering my hubby but he dislikes them.... it's as if they know who to terrorize LOL
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for entering your lovely card into our challenge. Good luck with the prize draw.
Stay healthy, happy, keep crafting and Creating Joy :)
