Happy Belated Birthday
Craft Your Passion-Always Anything Goes
Well this is a bit late
But I had to create
A card that I hope he will like.
And not tell me to take a hike:)
Pat Hatt is a poet and he rhymes every day
He talks about anything, what more can I say.
He rhymes much, much better than me
If you check out his blog, you will see
That his cat has some sass
From his little rhyming ass:)
I stamped the cat, just like that. I stamped the flowers in silver and coloured with twinkling H2O's but there are no bows. I used burnt orange, periwinkle blue and shiny green cardstock and then added the pussy cat. I hope it's not too girly for this cool rhyming cat. If he wants it sent, no problemo, I will gladly do so. No more rhyming:)
Retro Rubber Challange- Anything Goes (RRCB35)
Eclect Ellapu- Purple Team-Flora and Fauna
Simon Says- Come Rain or Shine
Chocolate Baroque Challenge-Colour scheme
This second card was inspired by the Battle of the Bands. Angel's Bark chose a song, "The Track of My Tears" so this card is what I came up with. I had this lady stamp for about 4 or 5 years now (RRCB35). I used distress inks for the background which I sponged on and stamped the lady in a midnight blue. I stamped and embossed a bunch of leaves(some with flowers) and fussy cut them out and adhered it around the lady. I coloured the rose in prisma pencils and added some wink of Stella (name of the brush pens) to the rose which is also a little over a year old. I added some stickles to show case a couple of tears on her and rain on the card. So I am a day late and I am so, sooooooo late with my A to Z because .....I'm an idiot but I will get it done( fingers crossed).

haha awesome job and a fun rhyme. The cat thinks it is sublime. Can't beat a happy cat on there too. Always great work from you. Second is grand, but of course the cat likes #1 best in his land. #1 here too. Hopefully the a to z you soon get through!
ReplyDeleteGlad you like the card and it's your for me to send it you wish. I will get the A to Z done for sure
DeleteHi, Birgit!
ReplyDeleteYou fashioned a very handsome and colorful birthday card for Pat and his cat (in the hat? :)... and Michele will be delighted to see the card inspired by her "Track of My Tears" BOTB post. It's breathtaking!
Happy Tuesday, dear friend BB!
So glad you like the cards and I liked the lyrics so I gave it my best shot
DeleteWow, those are really intricate! Very impressive.
ReplyDeleteThank you-glad you like them
DeleteYou're so sweet and creative. I love the cat card. It's very elaborate and frame-able. The other is a beauty too.
ReplyDeleteBe well, Birgit.
Glad you like them and the cat card was fun to do
DeleteThe cat is cute, but I love the sad lady.
ReplyDeleteGlad you like them and the lady was also fun to do even all the cutting:)
DeleteYup, I choose the cat card. Sad ladies are not required at the moment. Enough angst in my life.
ReplyDeleteIam certain you need a smile and I promise never to make a bed bug card
DeleteI liked both cards and fitting for the occasions, as we know how Pat likes cat. Track of My Tears, an oldie but a goodie!
ReplyDeleteI think Pat rhymes in his dreams, LOL :)
You will get through A/Z and I'm sure you will be ready for it too! Can't believe it is almost that time already!
betty
I think Pat rhymes all the time:) I can't believe it is only a few days away!!
DeleteI love the lady stamp. It looks like stone...and with those flowers it looks like a statue in a garden. I've always loved those. So pretty!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much. I was trying to achieve that effect even though I used these colours
DeleteTwo lovely cards and a fabulous rhyme!...what a good friend you are to personalise in such a stylish way xxxxxx
ReplyDeleteThat is nice of you to say:) I like to be inspired any way i can:)

ReplyDeleteOh my...hahahaaaa thank you for the compliment but Pat has me beat by a mile
DeleteThat beautiful goes with a great rhyme!
ReplyDeleteThank you...I tried:)
DeleteI really like that first one. And as for A to Z, I write my posts only a week in advance, and I continue to do so during April. You'll get it done. I have faith in you.
ReplyDeleteThank you and I. Will get it done.
DeleteI love The Tracks of My Tears card. You and Rita are so talented in the art department.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
Thank you so much.
DeleteWe're in the same boat with A to Z, Birgit, but no fear! We will persevere.
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are gorgeous, but of course I'm partial to the cat and his rhyming ass. He's adorable!
Glad to know I'm not the only one. Glad you like my cards and the pussy cat card is going home:)
DeleteLove the 'Battle of the Bands' inspired card. Beautiful work. Look forward to seeing you throughout April.
ReplyDeleteThank you! Glad you like the cards:)
DeleteBirgit, this is absolutely stunning!!!! Wow, how cool that my BOTB post inspired such a beautiful creation! I'm so honored. Thank you for sharing your talent with us. I have a touch screen on my computer so I could enlarge it and the detail is amazing. I love the tears. You do incredible work.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you'll be participating in the A-Z. I'm getting nervous. I'm going to be so busy because I committed to being a minion to check blogs. I hope I can keep up! I'm gearing up for Friday. At least we'll have two days and then a day off for catching up already. haha
Thanks again for mentioning my blog and the post as your inspiration. The card is beautiful beyond words...
Michele at Angels Bark
So glad you like my card and I really enjoyed making this. The A to Z is upon us!
DeleteThose are beautiful!!

ReplyDeleteHis birthday? Good grief, I can get so forgetful about things. Sometimes, I...what were we talking about?
ReplyDeleteYes it was and I see you have old timer's disease:)
DeleteBirgit, your cards are always so inspiring! I love every detail in your Retro Rubber submission (and both cards are wonderful)! I only wish I could hold this one to see all of the details. Truly perfectly done. Thank you for playing along with the Retro Rubber challenge and look forward to seeing you in our gallery again soon.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much. I am glad you like this card as I really enjoyed making this
DeleteBoth cards are great. But that second is just stunning.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much..glad you like them
DeleteOh no, my comments are disappearing again! I only meant to say that I've been busy too - Grandma turns 93 tomorrow and that deserves a special card.
ReplyDeleteDo you make your own cards? I would love to see them
DeleteNice work on both. Now I've got Smokey and the Miracles singing in my head...
ReplyDeleteHahahaaa that's great because my card did the trick
DeleteHi Birgit, thanks so much for your entry into our Chocolate Baroque Challenge. The stamps that you have used are lovely, and together make up a fabulous card, Judith xx
