What can I say, but thank you to Stacy for bringing us such a *fun* IC this week and to Dawn and Jen for encouraging us in All about {u} (F4A)! Stacy took us to the Tim Holtz Sizzix Board for inspiring and Dawn and Jen asked us to show our fav color combinations. Well, truth be told, my favorite color combinations are definitely mercurial. Today it is Crackling Campfire and Speckled Egg.
This card is a TOTAL reproduction of Kath Stewart.* She was a recent Featured Stamper (FS723) over on the Sunday Challenge. I have to say when the Pinterest Board loaded and I spied Kath Stewart's awesome work I had to try. And it was great practice for creating backgrounds with the DO dips. I can quite heavy handed with those and more practice is needed. But I had such a blast.
This card will go to a co~worker who recently surprised me with a Mask bearing my all time favorite, beloved comic character and cohort! It was a wonderful gift, and I've been waiting for something special to come. This snarky cat is just the cat's PJ's!
Thanks so much to our Challenge hostesses who constantly inspire us in our art! And thank you for stopping by my corner...
* well, I did use a different sentiment. Mine says: hold on tight to your dreams.

Oh, this is such an awesome creation. Fab job with the inspiration and I know your friend will love this. I really like the color combo for the background and it looks super. Snarky cat, indeed!

Really cool looking bg and what fun for you to have the exact images used on your inspiration - that rarely (read as NEVER) happens for me (my stores seem to only get left overs rather than anything "hot and new") Still for me it's really that bg that makes the card!

I almost chose this inspiration as well Susan, as I have one 'unused' snarky cats stamp set...... so that will be another day - a wonderful sentiment used with your cat and fun umbrella - a beautiful background and city scape!
