Kitty in the Garden!!!

Hey!!!

I had a visitor today in my garden. A cute little kitty plucking flowers from the garden.

This project is created for the "Crafting with An Attitude" Challenge. Please do come & join the challenge & display your beautiful projects.

Cats are so adorable...rolling over onto their backs, pushing their heads into your hands, trying to fit into things they clearly can't fit into, innocent meowing when they are hungry or want to seek attention,sleeping anywhere and everywhere,rubbing against you,hiding in a box or the bag which is lying around.....I am pretty sure all those cat lovers can relate to what I am saying over there.

So this card is dedicated to all those who love Cats"Meow...Meow"

Rose is made using paper punch die.

Cat is colored using copic markers-W5,W3,W1,W00.

Ear/Nose- Copic R20

Eyes-B28,B24

Other Materials used-

- Nature Garden Collection Papers

- Spellbinders S4-356 Nestabilities 
-Spellbinders Nestabilities Card Creator 5"X7" Dies-Detailed Scallops
-Joy Craft dies-ƒrench lily corners

Happy Crafting !!!
