Lazybones

... sleeping in the sun, never going to get your day's work done....


For today's cat card I've used a rather sweet cat stamp which is a very old unmounted stamp that came in a grab bag when I first started stamping  many years ago. I stamped the image and masked it, then stamped the seaside scene from a recent Creative Stamping covermount. I coloured the background with watercolours and the main image with pencils, then added a Tim Holtz sentiment sticker. Of course if you are a cat, that's the forecast for EVERY day.

Naturally I am sharing this with the Cat Lovers Hop at Her Peaceful Garden


I am also sharing at Inkspirational where the word prompt is Mask

Has there EVER been a more perfect union of cat image and sentiment on a card???? I think not! This is total genius to use them together. I ADORE that lazy kitty in the beach chair. What a lovely scene and so beautifully watercolored....just purr-fect!

A wonderful watercolored card, Jane, featuring a super-cool, lounging kitty. I love how you combined the deckchair kitty stamp with the background using the masking technique. The words are perfect for him! Lovely work!! xx

Sharon said...

I admire your use of watercolor. I love watercolor but could never get the hang of those paints.

NanaConnie said...

Oh, Jane, that sentiment is just so purr-fect for that image! Sweet card, great design, and wonderful coloring.

This relaxing scene makes me want to take a nap right now! There is no animal that relaxes as well as a cat, is there?
