I had to make a Thank You card for my kitty's lovely special Auntie in Chief who provided primary care for him while I was in Florida. Kitty brought Chief Auntie a rat while I was away much to her considerable upset and she had to call in reinforcements in the form of Auntie 2 (my cat's secondary carer) to get rid of it. According to Auntie 2, said rat was probably already dead long before my cat found it.
I decided to make a Halloween themed card in keeping with
Cupcake Craft's "Witches and Pumpkins" theme and I loosely interpreted Sketch 7 over at S
imply Less is More. I used Orange as one of my colours from the selection of "orange, purple, lime green and black" at
House Mouse & Friends HMFMC131
and I'm entering my card into the challenge at
ABC which is "Z is for Zoo".
I have had a lot of unpacking to deal with. I'm still not 100% recovered but I am getting around to visiting my blog buddies. Thank you for your patience and thank you also for your well wishes. They really helped!!!
What a cute mouse!
