I've been hoarding cancelled postage stamps since forever. There is a challenge group in PAT 29 that requires using postage stamps in the design. Having a sizeable collection of cat rubber stamps, I knew there was one with a cat in a chair similar to the one on the postage. My inspiration comes from this chair in the Basset collection: http://www.bassettfurniture.com/Pier...ir-DZ32786.asp. I used colors from the postage in my design. I used a gold Krylon pen the color the bird and crown embellishments.

You have such a great sense of color and design. You always think "out of the box" to create amazing cards. Now I want to start saving stamps...what a great addition to a card. The cat in the chair goes so well with the stamps. Awesome card.
