Hi! This card was made for today's Sketch Challenge.
I know it sounds strange, but Speedy the Cat has certain people who he considers friends. One of his favorites is our neighbor. When he comes to visit Speedy the Cat sits next to him, (he is quite frail,) and snuggles up! This is the same cat who stares holes in my father's head! LOL Our neighbor calls Speedy the Cat, "My Dear Friend." It's quite sweet. So, I made this card for our neighbor and will enclose a photo of them together.
Th image was stamped in Espresso. I used Copics to color the leaves and sponged in the blooms. I finished the blooms with Inkssentials pen. The base and the panel were stamped with a new mini set.

I almost feel like I should just type up the same comment for all your cards because I know I repeat myself every time. Your cards are always so unbelievably great. I just love the way you do your images and your frames and your extras. I don't know how you always have time to do every challenge and to do it so well, and to still leave love for everyone else's cards too. TFS!

Aren't you thoughtful to remember your neighbor?! He will cherish this, I'm sure. I love how you stamped on designer paper for the main image (at least I think that's what you did). Beautiful and taylor-made to fit the circumstances.
