I wonder is this a Easter Bonnet 

ingredients

Promarkers ,Black card, Satin Ribbon Gems & dp is Floral Ellegence

The set I am working with today is called Mew are Pawsome and you can purchase them from Jo's shop - Time For Tea Designs.

I stamped and coloured one of the kittys with Versafine and Promarkers.

Good day I am running so far behind as I have had some family issues and hopefully all are feeling a little better.

So i will quickly post my card and inspiration for this weeks challenge at CRAFTY CATZ which is hosted by Chris who set our optional twist - Stitching real or faux.

Of course our challenge is ANYTHING GOES so if you dont fancy the twist that is ok too.

The card was for my Brother who likes to play around upgrading his computer.

Image is called IT Ian

Coloured with Promarkers

Diecut lettering and sentiment

DP is from a very old stash but thought it looked like faux stitching on the stripes.
