Hello. Welcome. Woke to blue sky, frosty grass and sunshine, when it cleared the mountain. So a cold but glorious day. Spent time in the garden doing some tidying and grooming one of my rabbits who seemed to be having a very bad hair day. I think this warm winter has confused them as to whether they should be in winter coat or moulting for the spring. Also took the time to think about a couple of crafty challenges and came up with this. Uhhh, these.
Went with a pair, but not identical, 10 x 10cm cuties for the De Edel challenge. Went black and white for Double D and was also inspired by their mood board to use a cat, in this case Cheery Lynn's Funny Cat. I cut him in black and white and paper pieced to get one cat black and white and one cat white and black.
Using a few thank you cards this month so for the background I stamped and embossed DRS's Thank You and Lost Coasts Cat Paw Border. Then I went all smudgy with the black archival.
Now here's a fun idea!! I went all smudgy again with the black archival and then embossed it with black embossing powder. Actually quite a cool background me thinks.
Thanks for dropping by. Hugz

I love your funny cats so much! The sentiment on the first card is a perfect companion, too. What a treat! These made me smile, so thank you! And thank you for playing along in our Black and White challenge at Double D!
Gail, your cat cards are adorable! I love the background you created on the second one. Thanks for joining the Double D Black and White Challenge.
Cute cards. Thanks for joining us at Scrappelyst :)
Fun cards, Gail! I love doing that same effect with embossing powder for a grungy look. My technique is a little different, but it achieves a similar look.
We are still buried in snow here in Idaho.....not a lot for many parts of the world, but a lot for us. We keep getting another light snow and I am going to have to relent and start digging out a path for the swinging door to my chicken yard. As it is, I can only open it far enough for me to squeeze in and I have to walk all hunched over in there because the snow is so high that I can't stand up straight in some places. Every so often, we have a sunny day that barely reaches above freezing and a little of the snow melts. On those days, my chickens act like the happiest little birds in the world!! The sunshine lifts all our spirits!
Have a great weekend!!
