a kitty & a card!

Had to share this picture of one of our new kittens taking a nap with the baby. It was so adorable! We got 2 little kitties a couple weeks ago & they are like having 2 more kids. There favorite thing is to sleep all day they tear through the house & play with the baby's toy all night. Its cute to see them jumping in to the stationary walker thingy & play the toy piano. One will get on top the walker & reach down through the leg holes to attack the other one. Anyway here is a card we will be making at December's Technique Tuesday!

Once in awhile I do get things done in advance! Not often but I know with the business of the holidays & girls birthdays things will get crazy quick! So anything I can accomplish ahead of time is great.

ETA: For those who have asked about how this is done I am working on a little photo tutorial.

So Challenging

I wanted to make a special card for a friend that lost her grandmother recently. So I went to check out the challenges over on Splitcoast again. This card combines the challenge to use a frame & the other one was to use DSP to paper piece something. I have a ton of retired products that I totally hoard so this challenged me to actually use some of it!

Thanks for stopping by today! Praying you have a wonderful & blessed weekend.

SCS Challenge

I made this card the other night for the featured stampers challenge on Splitcoast Stampers. I love playing along with the challenges & just haven't had any time lately so it was fun to get to make this card. Thanks for stopping by today!

Christmas SAS is coming!

I must be having fun beacause I can't beleive how quickly this year is flying by. My sweet baby girl is already 8 months old & she is almost walking! Doctor says she is advanced. {Inset sad face here} My oldest turned 16 last month & my other 2 will be 5 & 6 in December... Can someone please hit the pause button!!! Anyway here is one of the cards for this months Stamp a Stack. We made a great card similar to this at our last demo Stamp n Chat. Thanks Janet! This is my version of her card. Did I mentioned how much I LOVE the new trim die from the holiday mini!Yesterday was filled with alot of chores & not as much card making as I hoped for but a very happy day anyway. What did you all do to celebrate Card Making Day?
