This week, Janice is hosting our challenge at Little Red Wagon and she wants us to showcase things we love. You could create a project about something you love or use a technique or product that you love. There's lots of interpretation here!
I combined two things I especially love on my card - cats and puns! I used some paper from a cat pack I purchased years (decades!) ago along with stamps from My Favorite Things. The dies are generic.

| A couple of years ago during Cosette's healthier days |
I actually made this card for our vet clinic. Last week, we had to say goodbye to our sweet little Cosette. She turned 20 in May so lived an especially long life for a cat. She came to us as a stray when we was about five months old or so, having shown up at a student's country home. My daughter and I had seen Les Miserables the week before we got Cosette so named her after the heroine of the story. Cosette's health wasn't the greatest for the past few years but something must have happened through the night on Wednesday as I woke Thursday to her not being able to stand, let alone walk. I'm so thankful for the gift that she was to her family. She's missed.
I'm sure you all have something in your lives that you love so I do hope you'll join this week's Little Red Wagon challenge!
I'm so sorry to read of Cosette's passing. Pets are part of the family and I know her loss is deeply felt. Your card is just love-ly, Kate, I know your vet clinic appreciated it.
ReplyDeleteAh, Kate. I'm so sorry to hear about Cosette. She looks very much like one of my cats, Cougar, who also lived a long life (18). Such a thoughtful card for your vet clinic - with a perfect pun too!

Cute card and also for a great cause, Kate. Sorry to hear about your cat but 20 is more than a good age.

Wow, 20 years of kitty love! I'm so sorry for your loss and can imagine the empty space her passing has left in your house and your heart. But what a darling card you have created for those who helped! I love the fun pun.
