Lucky cat?

I'm not sure which of the characters on this card the Good Luck wish is for - the cat, whistling away innocently before he pounces on the mouse, or the mouse who is tiptoeing away, hoping to make his escape while the cat's attention is distracted by the sentiment!

I computer generated the sentiment, having found to my amazement that I don't possess a single Good Luck stamp (ooh, an excuse for some shopping!) and then stamped the cat and mouse using images from Katzelkraft's Les Chats Russes sheet. I coloured them in with Promarkers - I wanted to make a ginger cat this time to contrast with the green lettering and die cut. The tiny paw print is a very old unmounted stamp, its origins are lost in the depths of history.


I am sharing this with
