I have used papers and digital stamp from Stitchy Bear Cats digital stamp and paper pack
Sentiment is from Create with TLC In Sympathy set

This is a different card to the one I had planned to make today for this challenge but my youngest daughter rang very upset today.  She had to take Angel the family cat to the vet and thinks Angel has had a stroke.  Angel is 14 and has not been well for a while.  She has messaged her second daughter to ring her when she finishes working at the zoo today to go home tonight instead of waiting till the morning (she usually stays at my other daughters) and has made an appointment for them all to go to the vet's tomorrow to say goodbye to Angel.
Angel has a growth on her neck which is getting bigger and the vet thinks it may be time to say goodbye to her.

I will make a happier card for the challenge later.
Those who pray please pray for Angela and her family.  Thank you.

There is a new anything goes on the A Bit More Time to Craft facebook group
https://www.facebook.com/groups/622948967842084/
16-21 August and you can win some of Lozzy's lovely papers.

I have used  papers from Lozzy's "Fun" paper set.
The rhinestone flowers are pink.
Printed Julia Spiri stamp Princess in castle.
My eyes are really fuzzy today so I have only partly coloured the image with markers and layered on top.
Don't forget to also enter the challenge at the Julia Spiri facebook group
