"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!

PKS TUESDAY CHALLENGE


Hi Everyone!

Hope you are all having a great Labor Day weekend!
I went to go see my son's first football game yesterday, it was not a pretty sight. They were crushed by guys twice their size!!! Was wonderful to see him though & to spend some time with him after the game!!! I miss my bubbaloo sooo much!!!

Anyway, on to the card I made for the most recent PKS Sketch Challenge #59. This one had a twist, you had to add buttons. I'm a HUGE PKS fan, so it was really fun to participate!!! I hope you like my little butterfly, my mother-in-law loves butterflies, so I thought I would send it to her.


Recipe:
I used Faceless Bugs (for the wings & body) from PKS. The set comes with some cute little faces, but I decided to use one from the Everyday Character set instead. I used a marker to stamp the body, so, I could use the other face, otherwise it wouldn't have fit. Hope that makes sense. lol
Made the Antennas from black coated wire
"Smile" is from-PBD Scripted Years (my favorite set of hers)
Momento Ink Tuxedo Ink pad
Green Cardstock is DCWV
Purple Color is one I created on my Imagine (one of the best things about that machine)
Cuttlebug Embossing Folder-Swiss Dots
Ribbons & Buttons are from stash

Gilby & I just LOVE your comments...his tail just wags away when he see's me smile!!!

Thanks for stopping by!

thanks so much

Needed to send a very late thank you to my blog friend Kendra.  http://kendrawietstock.blogspot.com/  She's the one that sent me some samples of  sparkly fluff, they sell it at  http://www.ourcraftlounge.net/
I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. Let me know what you think.


Recipe:  The vase of flowers is something that I stamped off a while back.  I no longer have the stamp, so I can't tell you who it's from.
Chalked the image and used some paper glaze on the vase, but not on the gray part
Pattern paper is some really old Creative Memories
Stamp is from MPS Everyday Occasions
Plain card stock, ribbon & button are all from my scrap pile

This is a card I did for a design challenge over at Our Craft Lounge,http://www.blog2.ourcraftlounge.com/ the picture didn't turn out as well as I would of liked because I took it at night.  I didn't realize the deadline was tonight!


Recipe:
Stamps are from Our Craft Lounge "Flower Power"
I used Juicy Orange Sparkly Fluff on the Butterfly and some of the Flowers, which you can also get from Our Craft Lounge.
My friend Kendra who designs for them was kind enough to send some of the Sparkly Fluff for me to try.  I love it!  She makes some of the most amazing cards, you should check her out. http://kendrawietstock.blogspot.com/
