Washing Day.


I think this little cat is trying to keep a low profile in case he ends up in Ella's wash tub.
I used  stamps from the Adorables Range called Wash Day Wishes for this card. The colouring is mainly cosmic shimmer  watercolour paints, some promarkers  and for the shading my favourite tea dye and antique linen distress inks.  I  used distress stickles for the foam on the tub.
This week the GC113 Chestnut theme challenge over at Gingersnap Creations  is - Babes and Tots.
So I hope this little one will fit the theme.

Also  at Craft us Crazy Challenge 14  for August is Anything Goes.

Thankyou for stopping by to take a look, I realy appreciate your comments.
