I made this for a man who is undergoing a lengthy course of treatment at the moment. I like the colour challenge of navy, mustard and brown - it seems very masculine.
The cat is stamped on patterned paper and then on a layer of card; the flowers are stamped on white card, then all fussy cut and assembled. I put on googly eyes for fun, and distressed the edges of the brown card for texture. Gold heat embossed sentiment and gold dots for sparkle.
