I have the honor of being a Guest Designer at Crafting by Designs where the new theme is "Use a Die." How simple is that? Crafting by Designs is one of my favorite places to play along in challenges and this time, the challenge is sponsored by Oak Pond Creations, some of my favorite digis!! It all worked out beautifully. I browsed around in my ever-growing collection of Oak Pond digis and chose this glorious fat cat. Don't you love it? I think this one will just hang on my refrigerator door as a reminder that I don't really need that second helping of dessert and that a glass of no-calorie, sparkling water might be just as good. OK, not as good as that chocolate cupcake fat cat is dangling from his tail, but healthier. :-D
The image is colored with Copics and ProMarkers, then die cut with a circle die. The sentiment is printed with a computer font and also die cut with a smaller circle die. I die cut 2 rounded rectangles and layered the circles on top. I added some flat flowers, put gems in the center of those, and added the pearls to each rectangle. This is a card that's simple enough to be a masculine card, but could just as easily be a feminine card.
Remember the other day when I said I think I prefer animal images to images of people because they're easier to color? After the simple coloring on fat cat, I'm absolutely convinced. :-D

I'd love to see you playing along in the "Use a Die" challenge this week. Other than having to use a die, it's wide open so a very simple challenge. Happy Stamping. NanaConnie

This is so cute NC! And that sentiment is exactly what my boss has said about himself several times. Working at a church rec/exercise center, we confront that "in shape" issue quite often! LOL Thanks for joining us at My Sheri Crafts this week!

This card is too funny and cute! It reminds me of my cat Logan Nicholas whom the vet said needs to lose weight. Hubby calls him pleasantly plump and my Mom got offended that the vet does not think her "grandkitty" is less than perfect. lol! Thanks for the laugh and for joining us at My Sheri Crafts.
