Cat Lovers Blog Hop 2016

Hello friends!

I am excited to be participating in the Cat Lovers Blog Hop today. If you know me, you know I love my kitties, so when asked if Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps would sponsor this hop it was a resounding yes! :)

For my kitty themed projects today I have a few things to share. First up is a fun Bible Journaling page that I created using LOL Cats, a set that was inspired by my own furbabies. Fluff, Tank, Squirt & Squeaker.

This set is FULL of fun images and sentiments that you will grab again and again!

I thoughts the images would working nicely for my page in Philippians about God supplying all my needs.

I had so much fun coloring the images and words for this page using my Prismacolor Pencils. I also used our Outline Alpha, Classy Script Alpha and Camden Market Alpha.

Next, I thought I would share a cute card I made using Diane Zechman's Valentine Critters stamp set. Talk about a fun set! I love all of the sweet images and sentiments in this set but that kitty is just adorable! :D

 I love a good CAS (clean and simple) card and this was a fun one to make my adding some shaped elements, patterned paper and bling. I colored the sweet kitty image with my Copics. I love making valentines and even though it's only Fall I am getting the itch to break out this set again! :D

Speaking of valentines, here is another one I made with a sweet kitty image this time from a set I illustrated called Cute Critters. You don't have to be only a cat lover for this adorable set. It includes many other cute little critters for your pleasure!

 Aren't they so sweet?! They will make the cutest cards for any occasion. Here's my kitty valentine...

This was a super simple card to create just by layering fun patterned papers and adding some twine and bling. The fussy cut kitty takes center stage. He was also colored with my Copic markers.

It's been.....a WHILE...

Wow! So I just looked and saw that I haven't blogged since January 2015....and you know what, I'm okay with that. In fact, even though the mood strikes me today, I may not blog again for a very long time. I'm just too busy running a home and a business so my stamping time is very seldom. I have also picked up Bible journaling over the last year + so you might see some of my Bible journaling pop up here, too, if time permits.

Today I thought I would share a couple of my cards from our 2016 Christmas release featuring Christmas Borders.This set has so many pretty images that are very easy to color.

For this first one I gold embossed the words and the images and then colored them with Copics. The background was then watercolored and I added gold pen around the outside. The panel was double matted and then popped up with foam tape on a kraft card base.

For this one first I stamped the image and sentiment, colored the image and then grabbed some of my old Christmas patterned paper pads that coordinated. The layout is very simple with just the patterned paper matted on the card base. I then used a die cut border for the image and sentiment panel and added a thin strip of glitter paper and mounted it on top. Easy peasy!

I'll try to share some more cards with you over the next few weeks, if time allows, but if not, thank you for visiting and God bless!
