3D CAT COASTER

I’ve made several coasters, and then several motifs as well as stuff toys.
Today’s project is a combination of these three.. and so darn cute, you cannot miss trying this one out.

The write up is, I think, a translation from some other language, so there are a few hiccups.. but not too hard to follow.  I have written to the designer asking if I could translate it better, but am still to hear from her.  
That said, have fun creating something cute.
