Today, we are featuring the new "More of Speedy the Cat's Friends" set.

Okay, I have to admit, I am really in "my element" with this stamp set.  I LOVE making cat and dog cards and that is exactly the kind of sentiments and images that this set contains.  For my card, I decided to use the kitty stamp and make her look like a glamerous princess.  I colored her with Copic markers then added a half pearl necklace.  The papers used are Mamma's Favorite Purple, Hazelnut Tan, and Corn Husk from Mark's Finest Papers, and Basic Grey's Cappella papers.  I decided to sew around the edges of this card for added glamour.  To finish it off, I added a Prima flower, Prima leaves, and a satin ribbon.  The stamp set, papers, and ribbons are all available from Mark's Finest Papers.
