For the StampinB challenge this week, in honor of April Fool's Day, Vicky Gould challenged us to do a humorous card. I thought any cat owner would get this. LOL I'm using a digi image from Phindy's Place called Lord of the Manor. I stamped twice, colored, cut out the cat, and mounted with dimensionals. I sponged my clouds using a SU circled scallop punch template and added grass from my Martha Stewart grass punch. The top is a spiral punch from SU. For my sentiment (Lord of the Manor), I used my Print Shop watermark.
Hope my card gives you a little laugh and we want you to join us and let us see YOUR humorous card.

Okay Benz, we're getting behind in the punch/die cut arena. B/t Gingerbeary and Emzi, they're killing us with their uses of punches/diez!! What are we to do? I heard Carol lost 10 pounds exercising with her punches while she was creating her last card. Maybe I should get started right away!! LOL!! Hugzi to my Benzi!

Sorry I haven't been around to comment much lately. You see, I've been waiting by my mailbox for a very important package. Big blizzard here last night so I had to seek cover... Cute card Benzi... Had that grass punch in my hand last week but opted for a different one since I know you've probably sent the grassy one to me already. (wink, wink) Just who is that on the ground in front of the house? Does the Defective Detective need to investigate a case of a cat burglar/homicide?
