"IT'S ALL ABOUT CATITUDE" BLOG HOP


Hi Everyone! 
Welcome to the “It’s All About Catitude”  Blog Hop in honor of National Cat Day, October 29, 2011, and our furry little felines hosted by Barbara . The theme of the hop is “It’s All About Catitude” and 19 crafty ladies have come together to create some purrfectly adorable projects in honor of National Cat Day and our furry little felines.   If you came here from Yvette's, then you are in the right place.  But if you happened to end up here, then you will want to go back to the beginning at Barbara’s and hop along with us as you don’t want to miss any of the meowy purrfectly frisky projects. The hop will run for two days, October 28, 2011 and October 29, 2011.  So please be sure to check back each day to see what new project each of our talented ladies has in store for you.



We unfortunately don't have any furry felines in our house, due to my allergies, I am terribly allergic to them! :( I'm not just a dog person, I do love the little furry furr-balls, they are adorable as kittens and then when they grow up to cats they are so pretty! It's funny how their favorite toy can be a piece of string or yarn and they will just watch it so intently and then go after it! One thing I've often wondered though, why do they have sandpaper for tongues & why do they love to like your eyes lashes with it??? Strange little cute things, but look what dogs do...LOL!!! 
A couple of years ago I went to a Scrapbooking Expo and just had to have these stamps along with some other ones. So when this hop came about, I knew that I would have to used this cute little kitty, yes this is the first time I've used it, but I'm sure there are lots of you who do that too, right??? Anyone??? I wanted to make two completely different cards with the same stamp, mainly to prove to myself that a non-sentiment stamp could be used more than once. I also wanted to prove to myself that every card doesn't have to be all elaborate & that it's okay to make simple little cards like this, think I did a pretty good job!

  4. I love following you, but I get confused because we use the same "paw background" for our blogs. LOL. And because I follow you, I found this awesome hop today! Yay! I take a day off from work, and here I have hopped all morning instead of doing chores! Darn. My four dogs and two cats appreciate the lack of the vacuum for sure.

    Absolutely love that you have two completely different designs with that one stamp . . . one more simplistic and one bold and bright with lots of shape! I love them both! Great designs.

I think you don't give yourself enough credit for how talented you really are. I am going to join this hop tomorrow after a little rest. You did a really good job. Tell Gilby that Tiki says hello!
