I knew right away I wanted to use the Cowardly Lion for this challenge. I use the Lion every year as a tribute to my sister and her bravery when she fought breast cancer. So he's popped up this year to answer the challenge to incorporate something fuzzy in a warm color palette. I had forgotten all about the color restrictions but think I lucked out in the end. Fur counts as fuzzy, right? I matched up this Unity sentiment and called it done. A great challenge, Lori.

Love this layout with the wavy lines. I make a card kinda like this too. That lion is just perfect. After seeing lions closeup in Africa, I'd just say they are fuzzy and cute and best seen from a distance...too close for comfort.

Love your lion image Kathy. Reminds me of Bert Lahr in the original "Wizard of Oz" and how he always held his tail. Great image for your sentiment. Terrific card.

Awesome card and a lovely tribute to your sister. I love the image and the fab herringbone dp. The sentiment depicts the great strength of those fight this disease.
