And here is my relatively faithful take on it:
I used the "rock & roll" technique on that chubby kitty, inking him first in light orange before rocking and rolling a darker orange around the edges. He and the sentiment are grounded with a simple marker line. Note the stripes on cat and twine; dots on two different papers. So balanced. :D I'm going to enter this into Simon Says Stamp's current Spots and Dots challenge, as well.
And I just couldn't bear to drag myself to my usual photography spot in the basement, so I took my photo in the beautiful sunshine on our deck -- which is also where I made this card. Gotta love summer!

I LOVE this card. Love the sentiment. I cracked up. Glad you're having nice weather. My card would melt before I could photograph it outside down here. Too hot and humid.
Love love love this card, Lindsey! Great rock and roll technique on the kitty, and that sentiment is too funny!

What a fun card! LOVE that kitty, and the way you pulled off two polka dot papers on the same card.
Are you kitten me? I love this card! The rock & roll on the kitty is perfect, and those DOTS! I'm going to need that stamp set too. Dang.
Lindsey, this is PRICELESS! All the dots, the kitten and the sentiment are fantastic!
Hey Lindsey,
You still cardmaking/rocking! I love your cool colors and big polka dots stripe. So fun to visit your blog. I don't often visit, but still, I love it. hugsxo Peggy
