Best Fishes

Hello, thank you for visiting me. An other card made with some scraps of paper... This kind (i believe it was an older Basic Grey line) is now all gone. If you are interested.. the other projects made with that paper can be viewed here:
"Valentines" Chocolate favor box with instructions
"Get Well" Teabag holder card (Magnolia)
I thought the flowers of the paper matched quite nicely with the flower style of my new Martha Stewart Deep edger.

I tried to color little Lucy as a Seal point cat - kind of like our "Maus" looks like. He has gotten very big. Sometimes he likes to sleep here on my craft table. Not in the way AT ALL :-)


sentiment: Computer generated
Papers: old Basic Grey line, Stampin up
Embellishments: Stickles, Martha Stewart Deep Edger punch, Charms

Maus really has grown - my cats like to sleep in funny places too, they also like to "help" with crafting !!!!

Cool card!

I have 3 cats who all loves to "help" me with my crafting, sometimes they all help at the same time. It becomes quite crowded on my carftingtable from time to time ;o)

You have colored this cat very beautifully, and I love those fish-charms!

Hi Claudia! The photo of Maus made me laugh - my kitty Poppy adores all my crafting things too! Maybe it's because they have to share our attention with them LOL!?
