I don't do resolutions but if I were, it would be to relax more and stress less. BUT, in the real world I know that isn't going to happen. hehe Oh well......that's why I make cards!......on to this one....
I ordered this image before I went on vacation. It was here when I got home. What perfect timing, something new to stamp with.
I stamped this Ladybug Crafts Ink image on w/c paper, colored with Tombow markers and blended with water. Drew the globe around the image shading & doodling the edges. Cut it out.
Made the stand for the globe, put it altogether on a white AC card with doodled edges. Popped up the also new to me image from Stamps by Judith birdie.
Well it worked, making a card relaxes me and I feel less stress....and I didn't even have a drink!....hehe ......TFL :0)

I like your attitude, Cathy! And your idea to relax more and stress less. Oh wait, I already do that, unless on the road with all the bad drivers.
This is a cute card and really expresses the relax more and stress less attitude! But what, no drink...? That cool cat has a nice cool one in hand, so why not join him...?

With your sense of humor I can't imagine you being stressed! This puts a happy smile on my face! That chair by fat cat looks like it would fit me to a tea. Fabulous coloring of this cute scene, Cathy! HAPPY NEW YEAR, GF!

Another card that made me laugh! This image cracked me up - because as soon as I walk to my favorite chair to watch tv or read - one of the cats will jump up in the seat and look at me as if to say "I got here first, nanner, nanner - and I'm not budging!" The card is so cute - love your globe around him - and wishing it were me in that chair with a tropical drink instead of kitty! Happy New Year.
