I love Saturdays because our Ms. Stef comes up with the greatest of color inspirations. Today was no exception to her track record! Thanks Stef.
Well, I really loved one particular teal room, but I got rather carried away from my original thought and inspiration in a way...Nutmeg you can understand cant you?
The cats embellishment came from an old Laura Birch summer bag I had. Interestingly, I had no idea for probably the entire summer these were cats. You have to know me to understand my penchant is clearly not for cats, but rather for dogs.
Once someone mentioned that cats, that was it for me - off this thing came. However, today it has a new life - not in my home but for someone who happens to love cats. Yeah, I'm takin' one for the team!
Have a great Saturday everyone. Thanks for taking a look at what cats can do for a card!

Laurel Birch did some of the greatest artwork! Love that you used it on your card since you couldn't bear it on your bag! Lovely sewing and dp! I am a cat person so I'd love them either place!

I love your card, Anne, and can admit I equally love both dogs and cats. Your cat-loving friend will sure adore this card. Love the stitching and the swiss dots.
