The optional theme for the Allsorts Challenge this week is 'For the Love of Animals'.
I made a stepper card using a Presscut 'Step Card' die for the card base. The image is an old Hobby Art 'Medium Daisy Cat' wood mounted stamp, which I've had for at least ten years and I coloured the cute image with Promarkers. The image was die cut with a Memory Box 'Stitched Oval Layers' die. I used a Sue Wilson's 'Pawprint Lattice' embossing folder for the background. The pawprints down the sides panels were done with a border punch. A sentiment and two punched flowers finished off my card.
Please pop over to the Allsorts Challenge to see all the beautiful creations the DT have made for inspiration.

He really looks like the Cat who got the cream, he's really sweet and your whole card pretty in the shades of purple.

What a cute cat and I love the added pawprint lattice embossing and the borders using a punch, the perfect embellishments, and the purple colour with the touches of green, and grey for the cat all work together beautifully. x
