Cat in Teacup


Bags and Boxes are the challenge this week on Everybody Art Challenge. I used Beate's tutorial on Splitcoaststampers here. I have altered the size because I had already coloured the image and in doing so it made the lid smaller. This wasn't going to be a problem since I was going to stick the image mat on it.
The papers are Deja Views and in hindsight which is a wonderful thing, I wouldn't have used the stripey papers with flowers on cos now they've upside down!
I used a Basic Grey magnet to close and its hidden under the sentiment and flower.  The cute little puddy cat image is from Just Some Lines who are sponsoring us this week.

Here you can see what I mean about upside down flowers.
Do hope you can join us at Everybody Art Challenge and do a much better job than me.
Today is a very special day its my DD Birthday. So

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANDREA

Sending birthday wishes to your DD, hope she gets a brilliant day with lots of fun!

Gorgeous project Debby! You could always say that the flowers are meant to be like that, tee hee, a sort of hanging basket thing. I think it's beautifully made.
