Hello friends,
A new challenge starts today at Double D Challenges. Team Diane is hosting this challenge with the theme “Anything With A 
Tail”. The team have created a bunch of beautiful cards to inspire you – a visit to the Double D Challenge blog will be worthwhile. We have also a fun prize to give away to one lucky player which will be chosen by Random.org.
I decided on a Penny Black stamp with an adorable cat for this card. I stamped the brick wall with grey ink and layer this on blue card-stock to frame the brick wall. I coloured the image with watercolour pencils, cut it out and layered it on the brick wall background. The pot-plant was stamped twice, which I also fussy cut and added with mirror tape for dimension.. To add more interest and colour I added a die-cut willow branch. I then added a three layer die cut sentiment to finish off .
I entered my card in the following challenges:
- Dies R Us Challenge #176 (ends 09/13) – Always Anything Goes with a brand they sell (Dies: Poppystamps die “Weeping Willow Branch” (Style 2024) — Creative Expressions Craft die Mini Expressions ‘Hope your Day is Wonderful” (CEDME047))

Could there be anything cuter than this happy and adorable fat cat? I think not. He is just what is needed and I love his pink cheeks.
