I've been meaning to tell you about the abandoned cat near my Daughter Sam's house. Well the RSPCA seemed to have gotten fed up of trying to catch her and left the cage for Sam to have a go. The cat was not having any of it, so Sam and her elderly neighbour Colin have been feeding her. Sam made her a bed in her bin area and she has been ok. Well, as Colin has a bit more time, as Sam works, he has been making friends with the cat and he eventually managed to pick her up and take her to the PDSA, (well done Colin!) so hopefully she is now being well looked after and hopefully re-homed. Both me and Sam would have loved to adopt her but we both have two cats, who would not have been happy about a newbie coming in. I'm really chuffed that she won't be spending the upcoming cold days outdoors, bless her.
Anyhoo! here's my card I've been making today.
I used: freebie Humphrey stamp from a mag
BG papers
Whimsey, Spellbinders & Marrianne D dies
Whimsey postage stamp
Spectrum Noirs & Derwent pencils
Bakers twine pearls & dewdrops from stash.
I'm going to enter it into: Sketch Saturday fab sketch
Crafters Companion Christmas Wishes
Right I must dash as I'm cooking a Sunday roast for tea & lemon meringue for pud. Yummy!
Will catch you all later.

Hi Donna, what good news about the abandoned cat, I knew there were some kind people about & your daughter & her neighbour are two of them. It's nice to know that the cat may be rehomed for the winter. Anyway on to your fab card & Humphrey is a little smasher isn't he? I wouldn't have thought to put bunting on a crimbo card but it that & the dotty paper work a treat. Enjoy your tea & pud.

Hi Donna, Aww this is so sweet! Love this adorable Humphrey image :-) I have made a card using this sketch with one of the new Humphrey stamps CC are launching next week. I will show it on my blog one day this week.
Your tea sounds yummy ... I love lemon meringue but sadly i'm on a diet so no yummy dessert for me :-( They say nothing tastes as good as being slim feels ... i'm not convinced lol!

A beautiful card Donna, such a sweet image. I really like the little flourish in the corner and the bunting is lovely.
Great news about the cat. I hope she gets a well deserved loving new home. Well done to Sam and Colin for making such an effort to help her!
