After a conversation yesterday about lending books and the borrowers not returning them, I was inspired to make a second card for Sue's fun Covered book cover inspired Tickle a Teapotter challenge. But this one will go to my sister. She loaned me a book which she had read on Kindle and loved, so bought a hard copy. After reading (and returning) her hard copy, I bought myself one.
The main piece is left from when Melody featured fossil stone in a VSN a while back, so it's some sort of inks on glossy paper. I stamped the cat directly on it, then added a few sprigs of grass. I could have left it as it was, but opted for adding the birds too.
Edged the piece carefully with brown. The next layer is regular white card embossed with the Darice cherry blossom ef and sponged lightly with antique linen. Also edged carefully with brown. I added a green grass border before adding the image panel and putting it on a white base.

This captures the mystery and elusiveness of the mind of a cat. I like that you added the bird, but I keep being drawn back to the cat. Awesome use of that stamp!

Wow Sabrina this is awesome. I love how you stamped the cat and it blends so well into your beautiful panel. I’m a big fan of using up panels we’ve saved from previous challenges. Your sister is going to love this. TFS. Hugs. Happy day
