No weigh!

My friend has just achieved 10kg weight loss, so I decided to mark the occasion with a fun card.  Inside it says, This is the correct way to do it!

The Scribbles Designs challenge this time is  "Say it with Snow".  Check out the inspiration and join us, here:   scribblesdesignschallenge

Coloured with Copics
Background, paint, snowflakes and sentiment:  Pixel Scrapper
Scored border.

This design had a wee accident in the making but ended up making a more interesting card.  I cut the background narrower than it was supposed to be, so added the scored lines to the base card and let the cat sprawl out over it.  I was going to raise the cat on 3D foam but decided to make it flat for easier posting.

Seriously

I love nothing more than getting inky, so here we go with the image inked and the background inked, spritzed, sprayed and splattered!  For the glasses I used an embossing pen and black EP .

Sometime I want to send an appreciation or 'no reason' card, either to let someone know I'm thinking about them, to encourage them, or to recognise an achievement.

We all went out for a lovely dinner together with other friends and made a night of it to celebrate.
