The rubber stamp is from Magenta but it is out of print now. It was the November 2010 Cat of the Month stamp named Angel, and I coloured it with my Prismacolor pencils. I really went to town with the embellishments today. I used some fall flowers from my stash, some decorative ribbon, and lots of gems. I also added three kitty die-cuts that I made with my new cat dies that I received for my birthday last month. I was inspired by my new bloggy friend Marion at marions-scrapkaarten - she adds little kitty die-cuts to many of her cards and it looks so cute that I wanted to try it too.

Wow, the coloring on the cat is so realistic...it looks like really fur. More like a photgraph than a stamped image! Nice fall colors and compositon! Thanks for leaving this at our house here at 613 Avenue Create!

Hey Kitty, I love your card. I saw it when I was over at SD. Interestingly enough, my very first cat was also called Muffin although she was female and pure white. She has now been gone more than 20 years. Your card is a sweet tribute to your fur baby.
Hugs,
Lisa
