I don't even like cats, but I can't resist this image! And Jen's Sketch for You to Try this week was perfect for those little chicks!
The only thing special about this card is that I used two maskings-I wanted the grass clump to be behind & in front of the pot. So I stamped the pot & grass onto copy paper like it would be on the final drawing. But instead of cutting out the mask of the just the flower pot, I cut along the front clump of grass on the bottom so that it kind of looked like this:
