Dawn has challenged us to make encouraging cards today. Well, you could call this an encouraging card. My aunt asked me if I could make a card to send to her granddaughter's boyfriends. Apparently, they adopted a cat and he thought it came with fleas. So he nearly tore apart their whole apartment trying to rid the apartment of fleas. She said he spent hours vacuuming the carpet over and over to suck up all the nonexistent fleas. So on the inside of this card, I have a living room scene, colored up with some Stickles to make it really sparkle, and it says "at least your home is sparkling clean."

This is so cute! I like the stripes on the cat, and relax is one word that can definitely be sent out to many who are just so stressed out over work, family, or FLEAS! Great job!

What a cute and thoughtful card. The boyfriend is sure to get a chuckle from this card. Hope it calms his nerves.

Your cat image is so cute and so was your story. Relax is a perfect comforting word to encourage someone who is stressed out. We all need to relax. A sweet card.

This cat is adorable. Wish I could do that yoga move.

Love the card..especially that fat little kitty! I think your friend's grandaughter just told a little 'fib' to get him to do the house cleaning! Good idea...must try it! LOL
