A break from cat cards... here are some birds :)  I coloured the images with promarkers, and then added a few gems.

Just a Note... and some cat hugs

Here's a notecard I made with one of my favourite new digistamps - an armful of cats! Probably ought to make some non-cat-related cards at some point...

I'm entering this into the Clear It Out Challenge : 'Anything Goes'.

More Cards for Cat Lovers

I just bought a couple of new digistamps from Little Claire. Here's a card I made with one of them. I love the image, as it has a cat AND some cakes on it - what else could you need on your birthday?

I'm entering this in the Creative inspirations: 'Birthday Bonanza!' challenge.

More Punch Flowers

I needed a Thank You card, so punched yet more flowers out of patterned papers. Love being able to use up some of my paper hoard :)  I made a 'Just a note' card with the same papers while I was at it ;)

More Tiny Flowers

I've been making a few more notecards, in different colours. I think I need to buy some new flower punches, though, as the different flower shapes look good together :)  Any excuse to buy more craft gear...

I made a couple in turquoise and in pink, smaller versions of the birthday cards I made last week:

These ones are inspired by the Fusion 'Happy Days' challenge, although I think I should have used more yellow, less white :-s  But I love colour challenges, as I'm not very imaginative with colours and the challenges make you try something new :)

I made these for the MFT Color challenge - love these colours!

Makes me think of bees

I wanted to make a card for the Color Throwdown challenge, but I could only think about making something with bees on it, and I couldn't think of any bee-related card ideas.

Love the colours, though, and also the daisies image - oh yeah, I could make something with flowers! It's not always about bees...

So I made a couple of tiny note cards with punched flowers and gems. I'm entering this one in the Color Throwdown Challenge:

And I'm entering this one in the Allsorts challenge: 'Bring on the bling' - ok, so it only has three gems on it, but it's a tiny card, so a higher percentage of it is 'bling'ed... Hope it counts!

Wishing you Cats & Happiness

Hi! I've just bought a new digistamp from Sami Stamps, called 'Covered in Kitties'  :)

Here are a couple of cards I made with it:
