My mate, Ali, got made redundant over 18 months ago now and although not having any luck in finding a paying job, she has been filling her time and getting valuable experience by doing some volunteer work - and she has been helping out at our local RSPCA shop in town.
She'd only been there about a month and then it was her birthday - the crew in the shop were so kind to her and have made her so welcome that she asked me to make a thank you card for her to send them.
Well, as it is the RSPCA and Ali has two beautiful kittycats, what else could I use but LOTV Thomas .....
This is not my best colouring effort with the distress inks, I think my head was elsewhere when I did it - I've just noticed that I have completely missed putting any shadowing in. Papers are all from Papermania Persimmon collection - gorgeous papers but only one measly sheet of each - how mean is that?! About time some of these companies realise that we need at least three sheets of each - two to use and one to gaze at! A couple of Martha Stewart punches on the go for the middle band and Sizzlets photo corners to finish off. The sentiment is from a Buzzcraft set of FairyDoodles.
Hugs, Squirrel xx
