Speedy the Cat did a REAL NO-NO! He ATE Markie's Lucky Bamboo! ATE IT!!!!!!!!!! Of course, that led to an Emergency Vet Clinic visit....That meant lugging a cat carrier full of HISSING, SNARLING, THRASHING cat up a flight of stairs...I don't like going to the vet either, mainly because I end up, usually falling UP the stairs, since Speedy the Cat's thrashing throws me off balance. Have I mentioned that I LOVE him??? No??? Well...life with Speedy the Cat is like a daisy...He loves me, he loves me not!
So, I was inspired to use this DAISY stamp! LOL!
Oh, and he's fine....it's not poisonous, just reedy and the vet took x-rays to make sure he just ate the leaves, and NOT the tough splintery stalk. I'm however, bent over with a TERRIBLE back ache, since I fell, again...What I do for Speedy the Cat...
I stamped and colored the image with markers. Next, I cut it and the mat with Nesties. I stamped the image again and colored the flowers and cut them out and adhered them with foam tape.
The white background was run through a Cuttlebug embossing folder that reminds me of the now GONE leaves on Markie's Lucky Bamboo. LOL!
The small butterflies are from a Martha Stewart punch from WalMart.

Really pretty daisies you've colored and inked and displayed all so well here for our eyes to see and relish in. Beautiful colors, and neat ribbon treatment.
