This cat looks just like one that used to own us years ago, his name was Tiger!
I sized the image a little smaller and printed on a scrap of white card. After the edges were torn and distressed, I used DI 'rusty hinge' to sponge the edges.His chain necklace was highlighted with gold paint, dimensional magic on the goggles, a small key, a piece of an old clock, and a word added.

I attached a piece of Bo Bunny DP to the top section of the card and then overlaid with a die cut piece from a scrap of white. The die is from Stamplorations called stitched winter landscape. I trimmed off the house and one set of trees and moved the set of 3 trees to the right. I added a silver peeloff to finish

A second post from me today with this card for a challenge that is new to me
The image was given to use and after I printed it I tore the edges and sponged with DI walnut stain.
I coloured some paper lace with a red Promarker and glued it to the left edge. I found some appropriate words, a cog and some red flowers and attached to finish.

I haven't used this set by Dina Wakley for some time, so thought I would give it an outing
I used shaded lilac DI for my stenciled background and then added french script in a couple of places using a very pale grey ink. The bird id stamped with Memento tuxedo black and restamped onto a scrap, which I coloured with promarkers, fussy cut and glued over the image on the card. I also diect a branch for her to stand on and stamped the message from the same set

Hi everyone
Today's card features a stamp by Rubber Stampede, which I have had for such a long time.
I stamped with my Misti using Memento tuxedo black and coloured with the following markers
Leaves - copics olive and Reno Art lettuce
flowers - Promarkers, arctic blue,pastel blue, cadet blue, and orchid
I stamped the flower head again and raised it with some foam tape
After trimming I layered onto a green stripey dp and added some matching blue ricrac trim

Bizzy Becs Store challenge - a/g
I was browsing through my old craft magazines, and this design caught my eye
I cut the rectangle window and then pricked the holes for the stitching. I used a sparkly gold thread.
I then added acetate at the back and attached my 3d flower.
On the inside to cover the stitching I used a cream card and cut a slightly smaller window so that it resembles a frame to the window

Welcome
Today's card did not turn out as I expected! I was using an idea from one of Natasha's you tubes, but somehow I went off tangent.
I cut the leaves 3 times on my Cameo and tried to colour them with DI in green shades and yellow. I was not happy with the result so added some colour with copics. I added some little touches of gold paint, then layered them and glued to my card. I also added a torn strip of leafy DP to the side.
The stamp is my new Woodware one that my son sent over from Australia for me. It is embossed in gold EP

I used some more of the pretty coloured card for my background, and it is the last sheet that I have!
The three panels are from an unknown DP and I have rounded the corners too
A strip of lovely lace is glued across and my sentiment (again with rounded corners) is layered on top. This is another rub on - so many more to use!!

A bright and cheerful card today with my very old Hero Arts stamp. I only coloured 2 of the flowers with copics and fussy cut them. Copics used were E21, Y06, Y38, E49, and Creative graphic marker 35 lemon yellow.
I trimmed the leaves from a much larger die and tinted them slightly. The white card was diecut and layered onto my base. The message is a rub-on, from another box of stash that has been neglected. I have found that you need to heat them a little if they are not transferring well
