March 4th, 2020 "Raining" Cats and Dogs

Can't believe another month of 2020 is behind us and we are already into March.  This month over at The House that Stamps Built  our Rock Star Esther chose the theme "Raining" Cats and Dogs for our challenge, so anything cats, dogs or rain or all of the above.

Here is my card for the challenge, outside and then inside as well.


No rain but 2 darling kitties playing - which not only kittens but adults love to play so I gave them a ball of yard and let them go.
I used 4207-H Playtime Cat  both on the outside as well as the inside.  I decided to make a little yarn for them to play with so I made them each a ball in 2 different colors.  I punched a small 3/8 inch circle and wrapped the bakers twine around and around.  On the outside I followed through with gluing the string on the stamped image lines, on the insid just gave the cat a ball of yarn.  I stamped the cats on two different cardstock fussy cut them and went from there.
Used a fancy fold corner which I have not made in a while but easy easy.

Your card is so cute! Love those balls of yarn. I've made a few cards with that corner, and it's a fun way to make an impressively different card. Thanks for reminding me of it. Maybe I'll give it a try again with a few Easter cards.
