Play Time

I was just playing around in the craft room and came up with this card.  I am not sure if this is going to be my valentine card for this year as I am still playing around with my all time favorite "Cupig" stamp.  This card is for my Secret Prayer Pal later this month when I reveal who I am.  This time I will sign my own name to the back.

Fritz Our Cat

Story of the week......Fritz our newest baby cat is as crazy/special as they come.  We are not sure which one of our outdoor cats is her Mother, but we are positive as to which VISITING cat is her father.  She is only about 9 months old and is already bigger (not fat just bigger) than Fatso.  She is pure white with the bluest eyes and the thing that makes her unique is that she has fantastic hearing (most white cats with blue eyes are deaf).  So I came home yesterday and Fritz was all wet.  I asked Stephen what happened to Fritz, he said "she took a shower".  Stephen went into the bathroom to take a shower and Fritz followed him in.  As he was taking his shower Fritz jumped into the shower with him.  So Stephen picked her up and they both soaped up and had fun.  When they go out Fritz just stared at Stephen as if to ask "where's my towel"?  So Stephen took a towel and dried her off too.  Now Fritz smells good and looks as fluffy as a short haired cat can look.  For the most part things are rather dull around here, but with Stephen around one never knows what might happen next. 

Whats New

I have been busy in the craft room and thought I would share some of the things I have been doing.


I did this card for a swap I am doing, the theme was polka dots.  I just received my SU order and The Gnomes are just too cute, I really enjoy this stamp set.

My secret prayer pal at church is celebrating her birthday this week .  This is the card I made for her.  She does not have a computer so it is safe to put it up here.  How does one get away with making cards for the SECRET prayer pal when everyone knows you make cards?  #1 others make them too.  #2 you sign Linda Lloyd to all your cards.  Yes Linda you are getting credit for the cards.

This card was done just because.  I received the new SU Paper Doily die and I was playing around with it. It is hard to see but each color is a raised layer.  Each layer was cut from the same die.

I needed to do a card using buttons for another swap I am in so I pulled out my stamps that are designed for the use of buttons.  I do not have the opportunity to use these stamps much, so I use them whenever I can.

Last but not least...the whole reason for ordering the Gnome stamps....Stephen's birthday card!
