This card is going out to Michele who lost her mother recently. I chose Circle/Blue/Dimensional for my elements. This was my first attempt at this fold - love it!! This stamp actually has a cake crown over the cat's head and he is holding a fork, so I fussy cut him to remove the cake and paper pieced a flower fussy cut from a scrap of the same DSP over the tines of the fork. To add dimension, I added a "Made with Love" charm and blue/white twine to the cat's neck. I will definitely use this technique again! I realized after I took this picture that I had forgotten to add his whiskers which were cut off in the fussy cutting; I added them later.

Adorable. Such a sweet yet fun image and I love the whimsical floral pattern on the dp. I was so impressed that the flower in the cat's hand matched the dp and then even more impressed when I read you fussy cut it to hide the fork...genius. I'm sure Michele, the cat love, will take a big shine to this cutie. Great card.

Love your idea of adding the charm to that sweet kitty! Your dainty dsp is the purr-fect touch!

Great job altering the cat image to fit your needs; I love the flower and tiny tag it is holding now. I also love that sweet dsp with the tiny blue blossoms, it's SO pretty.

Love this! Great job adjusting the stamp to work with the flower instead of the fork. Who would have ever known? I also adore that little tag on his neck. Too too cute!
