I just had to combine this sentiment stamp by VivaLasVegasStamps, called "When I Am An Old Cat", with the whimsical "Cat With Bird on Hat", also by VLVS. For this card design, I snipped the bird off the top of her hat for a more sedate look. Well, she thinks she looks pretty elegant anyway. I double embossed the background with the Circle Interlock embossing folder by Darice, and Stampendous White Pearls embossing powder. The White Pearls EP gives a pebbly translucent finish to an image or embossed surface, which doesn't show up well in photos, but is really pretty in real life.

Love the poem, a fabulous take off on the original "Warning" about being old and wearing purple. That just happens to be my favorite poem ever. Fabulous embossing and the image is a true delight, Karen! Visiting from the Cat Lovers Hop.

The embossing powder looks great on your card.I love what the cat is saying. I too want a diamond collar. That cat is smart. Nice job on your card. I think the cat needs to be a little naughty right now too. [Bunny]
