ATCs For All - Those Cats with Hats

The Theme sounded interesting but the mind was blank, DH suggested wild cats .... like lions, tigers etc.
Too funny!
So here are my 'Cats' in hats cards!

We found a picture of three lions in a magazine - what would I do without magazines? -  and cut out the lions.  I added some green paper as background and placed the lions across it.  I found some pictures of ladies with their curlers in so carefully cut round the curlers and attached to the heads of the lionesses.  The lion needed a crown which was easily found, cut and stuck!  I drew the letters with black felt tip pen.

I took a piece of watercolour paper, cut to size and wiped some colours across the front.  Then I found the ideal picture of a teddy bear and a top hat, and used the teddy bear as a template on some thin furry material. I laid out the hat and cat then when I had the positioning right I attached them to the card, drawing the features after it was attached.  I really had to think about the sentiment on this one but then it came to me .........


I love this picture of tigers swimming round a tub!  Give them some fancy bathing hats and goggles  ......  sentiment printed out on the old PC and another card was finished.



I thought that my last card needed to be drawn or painted, so I sketched out this cat from a digi found on the web.  I still have some small feathers left in my stash so found these tiny ones and added them to the cat's hat.  With a vertical sentiment ........

UPDATED:
I have received these cards back ......



This is drawn on very thin card and has no backing ergo the artist's details can be seen from the front.    Thank you Ashley.





This  is a very pretty card with delicate detailing.
