I stamped the image with black Versafine ink on white card stock and then colored it in with Prismacolor pencils. Then I fussy cut the image out. I die cut a light blue circle for a background and a black circle for a border using a Gina Marie Designs die set. After layering them together I then placed the kitty in the teacup image on top of that. It just so happened that I had some pattern paper from the Gina K. Designs Garden Tour pattern paper pack that was almost a perfect match for the way I colored the roses on the focal image. So I fussy cut around some of the pattern paper in a swirly design and then backed that onto some black card stock to create a border. These were all placed on a base card of white card stock. Next I added the focal image and stamped the sentiment. The finishing touch was to add some black gems.

A tea drinking cat lol You have made A LOT of cards for this HOP! WOW!
awww, so precious!
Super cute, and I love how the design in the little teacup matches the patterned paper, which is gorgeous by the way. Such a darling card.
This is really cute! Love that kitty and the whole image - Adorable!
That is a cute stamp and you colored it so well; he/she is adorable indeed. I also like the black curved strip coming up and down from the black circle so so the printed paper has definition. I can't believe how lucky you were to have the paper with roses on it; it looks identical to the one you colored.
very nice!
What a sweet card, Verna. That is a lovely image and a great sentiment.
