Debbie's FAVE

The feathers Kimmie adds to her card easily brings a smile to one's face!  She stamps the naughty kitty from the Newton's Birthday Flutter stamp set and colors all those feathers blue.  She then pulls her card together with the fun sentiment and sends proof of the deed with the actual feathers!  LOL

Diane's FAVE

Cat Craig creates this fabulous CAS card by coloring the little mouse and his mushroom from the Garden Mice stamp set on Kraft card stock. To "ground" her mouse, she adds a shadow.  Just adorable!

Sue's FAVE

Kay Demonbren creates this bright, festive birthday card by white embossing the kitty and his cake from the Newton Loves Cake stamp set on Kraft card stock which almost gives it a no-line look.  By lightly coloring around the image in white, Kay creates a glow emanating from the candles!

Becky's FAVE

Mary Reiner put her colored pencils to good use by coloring the clowder of cats from 
the Company of Cats stamp set in all different patterns and colors. She adds one more cat for good measure fussing cutting a kitty from the Newton's Book Club stamp set and adheres with foam tape.  All of this she adds atop a background of white and black diagonal stripes that really pulls her card together!

Bobbi's FAVE

Ildi goes the extra mile with this card that is completely colored with colored pencils. Using bright bold colors, Ildi creates her background scene by using the trees from the Winter Memories stamp set. She creates her clouds using the Cloudy Sky stencil. Shen then adds an array of forest critters using the ducks from the Winston's Lake House stamp set and Sweetheart Tails (retired) stamp set.
