Inspired By #164 - heart your Cat-titude!

I really didn't have to dig very deep into my stash to find the perfect set, and to put an Inspired By #164 spin on it!  Hope you like it, as I had such fun coloring these cats...


MFT Cat-itude - no longer available - sorry! 


A Copic multiliner, and a bit of inspiration from the original artist, 
and Bob's your Uncle!  OH the little rugs they're sitting on are scraps left from the center of the O's I've used the past few weeks!  There is that new 
Stamplorations Wonky Stitched Grid plate again... I love the bit of whimsy it adds!


I used black for stamping and coloring, instead of what appears to be brown in the photo, but I don't think that matters much at all.  In fact, I hope you'll find a way to put your very own spin on it this week!
   
Let's see how the others have played, shall we?  IB#164

Cat-itude is the right word for these furry felines. They are so adorable in those stripes. Using the "O" centers is a genius way to add color, as well.

LeAnne said...

Adorable! Those kitties are just perfection! LOVE the hints of color you added, and good for you, recycling those "O"s!!!

Oooh la la, you have an awesome cat clowder here! I love all the details you added. They look very bohemian French chic to me. You are so clever to keep those circles handy. And to be able to remember that you did so! Magnifique! :)

That's some serious cat-titude my friend! Love those faces and their stripes! They look like a gang out for some serious cat-terwauling! Thanks for the smiles to start the day!
