Schrodinger's cat, from Katzel, reminded me so much of this little china Kerry cat which we bought many many years ago on one of our first camping holidays in Ireland, before we graduated from France. I bought one for my mother too - and they ended up moving to the town he came from after my dad retired. Lisa's WT challenge put me in mind of these old Queen & Co sprinkles, which have tiny brads to hold them together. I thought they were called sprinkles back in the day I bought them, which is about 15 years ago. Evidently they use "sprinkles" for something else now, because that's not what comes up when I do a search.
Stamped and masked the cat. Stamped the flowers and grass. Coloured the cat with pencils, added the sequins and then layered it onto a rectangle cut from a cereal box. The blue background layer is the brayering off from my MIX card today.

Oh, my! Another one for my favorites! That staging cat is stunning as well as your stamped cat! I love your card so much! I love the expression on his face and the flowers are beautiful! The brads are so pretty with the itty bitty brads!

He does look like your china cat and you colored him so well to match. What a great expression he wears. Love the staging with the flowers and grass. I think those are the perfect flowers for him too. Fun fun card.

This is a card with atitude...I think all cats have an attitude, unlike dogs that stare at you and say how much they love you. You really captured the look of that figurine beautifully. Great idea to use the cereal box.

A cat with great personality (as most cats have I suppose)! This image reminds me of a Dr. Seuss drawing. Love your story and the figurine; your uploads are the whole picture! Super card Sabrina!
