I looked at the desktop and there's a card lying on it which wasn't there yesterday when I finished playing. I remember very clearly making the card but it was back a ways, maybe even six or seven months ago. So I searched back through the posts on my blog and it wasn't there.
Hmmm, could it have been as much as a year ago? I search back further, all the way back to last year's Cat Lovers Hop but nothing. OK, go back even further - I covered every post for the last two years and more (wasting a good two hours of what could have been productive time - grrrrr.) I have never blogged about this card!
Well, lucky you, folks. You get to see it today and I get to enter one more card into the Hop. :-D This card was done in honor of one of my childhood cats who was named "Stretch." He was black and always stretched before every activity. Even when he awoke hungry and thirsty, he had to take time to stretch every muscle and tendon in his sleek body.
Please don't ask me who made the cat image because I don't remember. I do remember sizing the two cat images and reversing one to print them both on the same piece of CS.
Eyes done with red glitter
Cut with square die (QuicKutz) and distressed

Cats loves to stretch, great idea for a card. Love the red fussy.

Gorgeous and perfect timing for it to show up! I can see how these two reminded you of your Stretch, such a nice image.

Very hilarious!!! Love the funny image and the adorable red details!!!
Haha, I've done that too. So glad you were finally able to share it! Great silhouette kitty images!
Wonderful. Love the sentiment and simple color scheme.
I saw your card on Double D and on the Cat Lovers Hop and had to come over. I love the red mulberry paper, which I had never heard of until I started card making. It sets off the whole card. Good luck in the hop!
What a great design this is! And love the pretty red, white & black color combo, too. The mulberry paper & your bow are yummy!
Love the layout, the reversed and re-sized and fab frayed edging!
Becca, I wish I could comment on each of your entries but I don't have a Flickr account and that prevents me from commenting on them. I do visit so I get to see all the fab things you're creating!
It's lovely card.
Love all the the red elements including the eyes! That digi id purrfect- I wonder where it (and the card) came from!!
What a purr-fect card. I love it that you named him Stretch :-) I wonder where that card came from then ???? Spoooooky :-)
Love the red furry edging.

Stretch was really the perfect name for your cat. :) Luckily the card has came out, so you have posted now! It's very beautiful!
Ahahaha! I my goodness - at least you found it! I giggle because I do confounded things all the time! Stretch is so appropriate! Beautifully done!
Love that name for your kitty....just perfect!! I am so glad you found this card because it is a delight!! Clever doing the reversing and resizing of the images...I am doing well if I can even get digis printed!!! Ha. I love the red mulberry paper and the glittering fiery eyes. I zoomed in on the image so I could get a good look at them. Great effect!
Thank you so much for playing along in the #2019CatLoversHop!!
