This is the real cat that came to live with Princess and Mr. PJ. He's a gift from my friend and came complete with instructions to make a fun summer card,which I have duplicated here.
My friend does something that is either incredibly OCD or exceptionally brilliant. You can decide. Any time she runs across an article, a nifty card photo, or directions for a stamp she owns she would clip/copy/print it out and keep it with the stamp. That's how I got both this stamp and an article about making this style card with it.
I think it is kind of brilliant for those moments when you are stumped, you'll have some ideas at the ready, but I also think it sounds like it might be a bit of a hassle to hold onto all these pieces of paper.

Umm, I think that's why they invented Pinterest! The card, however, is brilliant.
After spending weeks surrounded by 20-years of papers that have to be tossed or shredded before we move, I'm all for limiting paper (except the pretty kind you use to make a card.)
I'd have to add on a room if I chose to do that, but it is a clever idea to be inspired in an instant! The card really is cute and what a fun cat to boot!
I allow myself ONE LEVER ARCH FOLDER for magazine clippings of ideas I like and also that apply to stamps I own and even that periodically gets a clear out! Otherwise, I'm with Sandy . . . I use Pinterest!
Great card and brilliant for using up snippets. It's a lovely stamp addition to your collection.

Your friend sounds super organised. It must be great to have instant inspiration. I think I'd drive her nuts. I love the card. Barbxx
