The Loss of a Pet

My friend Robin recently lost her kitty to old age. For many of us, our pets are an important part of our family and it is a very sad moment to lose them. For Robin, it was very sad so I wanted to make a card to send to her so she would know I was thinking of her. This inchie image was perfect so I stamped it onto some kraft cardstock and colored it in with my Copic markers. Then, I used a layout that I had seen over on Kurtis' blog HERE to finish the front of the card. The stitches are real thread even though I believe Kurtis seems to have used a sewing machine. Supplies: Stamps - Cats Galore (Inkadinkado), Beyond Basic Borders - sentiment (Papertrey Ink); Ink - Jet Black (Ranger), Chocolate Chip (Stampin' Up!); Paper - Kraft, Green Galore (Stampin; Up!); Other - brown floss (DCM), paper piercer, dimensionals. ; Here is hoping you have a great day!!!
