Freshly Made Sketches #619

Judy, I sure do appreciate that you were so brave to choose my crazy take on last week's Sketch - hope you still have your magical glasses on!  lol Here's my take on your fun and fabulous Freshly Made Sketch #619!


An old Cuttlebug EF, a bloom from The Stamp Market, and a sweet Betterpress-ed sentiment came together so well... IMHO anyway! 

Here is how I added the dimension to that darling Paws Up from Waffle Flower:
with one of their detail brushes, of course!  This time Shader #3+ to be exact.


I went right to work using this darling Cat Paw to bring a little of our darling Calvin & Hobbes back into our lives again.  Waffle Flower has THE BEST set of sentiments with 'cat-itude!'  It's called Pet Thoughts and some of them are just exactly what we think our boys would have to say about things!  This one is going to my brother-in-law - he will SO get it!



The bangles and hanging beads in this embossed panel [thanks Lisa!] would
be absolutely irresistible to any cat!

I can't paws another minute for more playtime - after a fun chat with my friend Stephanie this morning, I'm raring to go!  OH! before I go - check out what I saw this morning....


Hope you're having a sun-shine-y day today!

  11. Two amazing and fun cards, Michele, so perfect for the cat-lover in all of us! Oh, and I LOVE the white stuff! Our day started with a bit of snow but by afternoon had changed to freezing rain - ugh! On the positive side, they shut everything down in the courthouse to send people home -- well everyone except my division...

  15. Lovelovelove these cards so much! You have the cutest, most fun stamps and dies! The paws speak volumes, and the sentiments say the rest. The first is just the sweetest with love all over it. The one white toe is adorable. Yes, those little pink paws would be all over the dangly stuff. It must be nice to see that beautiful blue sky. It's still gray here but at least it's not raining at the moment.
