Lucky Black Cat


'Cool Cats' is the title for the challenge from My Time to Craft this week and I decided to incorporate a few other challenges with my DT card.
There She Goes - 3 Embellishments - Lace, Ribbon, Brad
Pink Elephant - Birthday
Fussy & Fancy - New (Brad making kit)
Crafty Catz - Bright & Sparkly (Bright white with bling added to the brad)
Crafty Creations - Black, White and a Splash of Colour (not so much a splash as a stroke... the cat's collar)
Crafty Angels - Can you feel it? - There's lots to feel... embossing, lace, brad, ribbon.
The lace had been hanging around in my sewing box for ages and I think it is doing a little more good on this card than in the bottom of the box. The white card is embossed with a Cuttlebug (Victoria) embossing folder. The paper is from Pink Petticoat. I have just acquired the brad making kit from Papermania. My local Paper Mill Shop had them on sale and I succombed on Saturday. I'm rather glad I did as I am pleased with how this one has turned out.

    wow love everything here, great idea to add bling to those brads, I'll be robbing that idea, The lace looks beautiful and the cat is very sophisticated (I prefer to think cats are snooty!)
