Welcome
This will be a short post as 1) this card is very CAS and 2) I have had to use a phone photo as my camera and computer are not being cooperative, so the detail photos I took are nowhere to be found!
There is no doubt this has been inspired by one of the Queens of CAS, Miss Ellenor
I started with a RAK sent to me by the wonderful Kelly, The Sandcastle Stamper
being the Feline Good stamp and die set by The Project Bin.
I stamped and cut the fat cat of the set on a snippet of card, and coloured him with chalks. Next I stamped the sentiment, and added some grey chalk to ground the cat. To add some subtle dimension I added two layers of card under the cat before positioning him. The orange twine, which tied the pretty packaging the set came in, was tied across the top to finish.
