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!

Well, Anne, I'm not sure what cats can do for a card, but I sure like what you MADE them do. Amazingly creative, I would have tossed it if I didn't like it, but you gave it such a clever new life and I'm sure the cat lover will LOVE this.

Fabulous Anne!! I so know what you mean about being a dog person... but I must admit these cats are mighty cute!! Love the stitching.. I cannot sew on a button!!
I am sure that both Nutmeg ( such a cute name ) and Daisy ( came with her name! - would agree - dogs are where it is at!

Wow! This is so cool!!! You hardly ever miss an IC! I hardly ever do them because I'm such a chicken. The few that I've done have been disasters! Yours are always fabulous!!!

Anne, I think those cats are as they say the cats meow....
Great card and I'm glad you didn't just throw this little treasure out. Nice recycling job on this.

Meyooowwww! I love the colors...though being a schirmcat, I am slightly offended that you do not like cats....while I, too, have dogs....and am very allergic to cats....I can appreciate one....and being that I am married to the original Schirmdog.... my nickname would have had to have been Mrs. Schirmpuppy or Schirmhamster if someone didn't think up Schirmcat...which sounds way cooler....but I'll forgive you since you made ONE FUN CARD!
