Hey, did you know the Mo's Digital Pencil challenge was back? It's an "Anything Goes" theme with an optional twist of "Spring." This darling image (called Boo and Tulips) is an older one but you can still find it in the shop. It's perfect for a spring theme but could work for nearly anything. I'm using it for a birthday card for my SIL who has a May birthday and who loves kittens.
Even the briefest of glances around my blog sidebar will tell you that I love cats! I disagree with every person who says cats are aloof and unresponsive. I agree that some of them have "attitude" but it's the very thing I love most about them.
I love that when a cat attaches to a human, it's forever and it's completely unrelenting. My cats follow me around the house when I move from room to room, insist on sleeping right beside me on the bed at night, and have their own favorite spaces in the craft room which they occupy whenever I'm in there. :-D
I colored with ProMarkers, then used a Cottage Cutz die to cut out the image. I printed the sentiment and used another Cottage Cutz die to cut it. I had to adjust the placement of the die and cut twice to get the size and shape I needed but it worked.
I found periwinkle CS to make the card base and ran the front side through my 'Linen' embossing folder. I wanted something really CAS so I adhered the image and the sentiment pieces and then left it totally alone - no embellishment at all.

Love the tulips NanaConnie but that kitty has stolen my heart, she's a beauty and I love her colour. I think my cats sound very much like yours...one's a real grump but that's what we love about her, a couple are quite aloof, the rest are big softies....but they all are so precious. Hope you're well.

Eeee !! So super cute and gorgeous colouring.
I know what you mean about kitties - I have 23 - 12 indoor cats and the others stay in the garden. LoL I sit on the sofa at night to watch tv with usually 8 cats on me, but I don't let them downstairs in the craft room or up in the bedroom hahahaha
Thank you for purring along to play at SUYP Cats Challenges =^..^=
