My friend Marie-alice (aka ladybug91743) watercoloured this image and was about to throw it away!! She drew everything that the cats are looking at - the trees and the birds, and watercoloured it. Then she said she didn't like it and was going to throw it away! I took it instead because I liked it quite well!
I darkened the shadows of the cats in the foreground with Copics and also darkened the shadows in the window frame. But I left her outdoor background in all its watercoloured loveliness.

I love your kitty cats looking out at that scene. Ladybug91743 did a good job on the scene and it was just perfect for your window view. Such a pretty and sweet card.

That image with the cats and their entwined tails is so precious. We had similar ideas today with a Kraft bg and a scene that is waterdcolored, Sophie.

I'm glad you brought your rescue cats along, Sophie . They made me smile. I know Marie-alice does fabulous work with watercolours, I have one of her cards using Boatloads of Love that has been in my favourites for years and I still go back and look at it!
