Hi Everyone, I had a call recently from one of my Sisters in Law who, through tears, told me they had to put their cat down to her illness and old age. She was a stray and was found full of fleas and sores, my brother and she, took her in, and saw she had a wonderful life of many more years.
This is the card I made for them. I used my Silhouette to cut the heart frame, and used Photoshop to make the centre. I used a photo they had sent me, of Chloe, on my brother's lap, using the same blue as his trousers, to make her stand out in the circle shape I used.

circle die - Tonic
For the insert, I found a couple of verses on the web and adapted them to suit. I used the same photo on the left of the page.
