This is for MMTPT 122 as well as today's sketch - I wanted to bring a kitty along as well as my bird yesterday - although I hope the bungee jumping is optional.
So - it's not the best card I've ever made, but I had a 1 3/4 hour walk home in the snow from work, and I am stiff and tired and just waiting till it's not impossibly early to go to bed. And hoping to goodness that work tomorrow is cancelled. For all that it took me that long to walk home, that was still faster than it took the bus to get in in the morning. We do not do snow in Ireland.
5 1/2" base. Image is Hero Arts, stamped on watercolour paper and coloured with watercolour pencils. Layered onto Sizzix Little Sizzles papers with a lot of doodling to match the papers, and sponging with Peeled Paint and Spiced Marmalade. I added Primas with brads and punched leaves sponged black, and then stamped a HA sentiment. I should have done that before the doodling...c'est la vie.

This is, indeed, very cute and sweet! Oh, you beat the bus - and walking in the snow! I hope they cancel your work for tomorrow - so you can stay home, dry, drink hot tea and make cards!

This is just so darling! Love the paw prints. I feel for you walking for so long in the snow. I love snow but don't like to drive in it or walk long distances in it. Rest up & treat yourself well.

Such a sweet kitty image! Love your doodled paper... fantastic job! I saw the weather on your side of the pond on the news tonight... it wasn't pretty. We get a lot of snow here, but it doesn't mean I have to like it. LOL

My goodness, what a story about the snow!! You will probably be even more sore tomorrow. Hopefully things will be closed and you can stay home and stamp a bit. This kitty card is adorable. I just love the patterns on the DP and your doodling you added.
