A friend like you comes around once in nine lives

Ever have so many crafty ideas in your head that you don't know where to start? Yeah, that's where I'm at so I decided to play along with a challenge or two to get the creativity flowing and give it some direction.

The first challenge I found that I wanted to play along with is the current Just Us Girls Challenge~ Use a background stamp. I decided to use my Stampin' Up Buffalo Check background stamp as a starting point for my card.

I also used a new stamp set, Nine Lives, that I just got! I love how easy it was to add the stripes to the cat and the matching cat punch made it so easy to cut it out as well.

Have a wonderful day and be happy!
