One of my closest friends has just recently finished some important post-graduate exams for which she had been working hard all year, and she told me yesterday that she had passed them all - yippee! So I decided to make her a card to congratulate her , and this cute LotV kitty came straight to mind. I also decided to attempt a multiple challenge card with it ... so here we go :-)

I followed the sketch for this week's
Papertake Weekly, as it seemed perfect for the image and colour scheme I had in mind.
