Best Friends card



Here's a card I made using materials from a WeR Memory Keepers kit. I'm sending it as an anniversary card.

Leo







Back in October we had to say goodby to our kitty BC. He developed a feline cognitive disorder similar to Alzheimers. It was very sad to let him go but he had no quality of life. We missed having a furry companion so we adopted another rescue cat.

We found Leo at a Petsmart. He was a feral kitty that was fostered by the great folks at the Isle of Wight Humane Society and eventually adopted but then surrendered back. The family that had him had some issues of their own that in my opinion interfered with them giving him the love and attention that he needs. Their loss is our gain. He's a great kitty. He's not a lap cat (yet) but he doesn't mind being held. He plays on his own and loves to look out the windows at the birds and squirrels.

Leo got a few treats in his stocking on Christmas day and likes to rest under the tree. We do find ornaments on the floor here and there so I'm glad I decided to use soft ornaments this year.

I hope you all had a Merry Christmas.

Christmas cards part 1



I wish I could remember the "name" of this technique but I can't. I just took some monochromatic colors of waterbased crayons and then stamped a simple Christmas stamp over them after they dried. I've got a couple more to show next week.

Howdy Partner card



This card was made using a Hot off the Press kit. Lots of fussy cutting but a cute result for card. I'm using it for a nephew on his birthday.
