WT1088 Exercise buddies

Photo Details

Poster: stampingwriter

For Ways to Use it Challenge, we are focusing on exercising and other New Year resolutions. I used the out-of-the-box technique on this cute digi and created the sentiment on my computer. The image is colored with pencils. The patterned papers are quite old and qualify as USEIT2026 items.

I haven't used the out-of-the-box technique in a while, but your card is reminding me how effective it is! The image really made me laugh - my cat once sat on my back while I was doing pushups!

This is just so precious, Sandy. Great images, papers, and sketch. This made me smile. Kitties are the best. Hugz

Great colors and I love how you made your cat out of the border of the circle! Genious!

Great card! I love the way you colored her socks to match the colors of the patterned papers. The sentiment made me laugh -- I have a cat who's definitely a chonk, and it does feel like lifting weights when I need to pick him up.

Such a cute card. Love the colors and the sentiment. Lifting a cute cat does look like more fun than lifting ugly weights.😃

The out‑of‑the‑box cut is such a smart way to spotlight this digi, and it works perfectly with the playful workout theme. Your pencil coloring brings so much warmth to the scene, and the way the patterned papers echo the colors in the image pulls everything together with such an easy sense of balance. The sentiment is spot‑on for the challenge and adds just the right touch of humor.
