I'm thinking I just did this ai background (I think it's ai?) but I have no memory of what I did. I think it was on the gel plate but, again, no memory. I thought it would do for the MIX today-Pantone 2021: Illuminating and Ultimate gray. There is some gold in there. I've had this lion stamp since the beginning of time, never been super happy with how it stamps but since we're challenged to use cats for the F4A today, I thought I'd give it a try again. I stamped him with basic gray on the smoky slate, adding a bit of metallic gold. There isn't a lot of detail to this stamp, probably just best to stamp in black. I edged him in black so he would stand out more, but I didn't want him that dark. The three words I chose describe him. My title comes from the Cowardly Lion in The Wizard of Oz. You could listen to the song on YouTube, I would imagine. Bert Lahr was so funny.

This is so striking and unique! I don't need to listen to YouTube because with that title, I can hear the Cowardly Lion way down here!
I hope you can remember how you made the background, because more of this would be fabulous!

That is one beautiful cat! The background is fantastic with all it shades of grey and gold. The stamps fits perfectly, a bit toned down but really bold, brave and fierce, letting the background shine. Love it!
