Inspired by All the Little Things #54

I'm cutting right to the chase this morning, friends!  This photo challenge from Inspired by All the Little Things is just too fabulous to hold back:

Am I right, or am I right?  Here's where my imagination took me ... or lack thereof... with one little variance: my chair is otherwise occupied... he hee...

Mama E. 'bookshelf' - btw this is an open shelf -
there were no kitties trapped in the making of this card!
Winnie & Walter Audrey's Cutaways for panel
PTI Aqua Mist cardstock; MFT Our Story stamps and dies [xxoo for my secret pal!]
and various Copics
 
Now.  I have my first cup of coffee in hand, and have a little catching up to do 'round blogland!
 
Thanks for the quick visit ... you all start my day in a very special way!  xx

Thank you, Leigh!

    Let's each get a cup of coffee and sit near the book shelf and chat, okay? I have this set (no dies...yet) and need to give it some TLC; thank you for the incentive. The kitty, curled on the shelf, is seriously cute...as in I-want-one kind of cute! LOVE this!
    Hugs~c

    Plenty of imagination here, if you ask me. I love what you've created and how you've given love to each element on that shelf. And that scalloped panel...there's just something so right about that! Perfect take on the inspiration photo. And I'm calling winner for this one! Bev

    Fabulous card, Michele. Sweet and cozy and that napping little kitty just steals the show! I know kitties like to sleep wherever and whenever. I had one that slept in the living room of the Barbie sized dollhouse I made back in the day. (It was stitched plastic canvas). So I know no kitties were hurt on this card. I adore every little detail! Hope you have a good day! :) Hugs!

    Michele, when I saw this challenge come up, I knew I loved the picture and the colors, but for the life of me, I just could not think of what to do. So, my dear, you have blown me away with what you have created here! Talk about a great spark of creativity! I love love LOVE this! To make the little window into a bookcase? That is brilliant! So full of crafty goodness i could squeal!
    Take care!

    You had me at "no kitties trapped in the making of this card" LOL I'd rather a kitty be trapped in my arms ;-) Your card is absolutely SUPER, Michele, and has so many elements I LOVE - books, a cuppa, flowers, and yes, an adorable kitty.

    I love all the little details on your shelves, Michele. I always admire these detailed cards but I'm too impatient for all the details, plus it really takes Copics which I don't have.
