It's Fall Y'all and Time to Dress up the Cat!

Good Sunday morning to everyone
and 
yes, Fall has officially arrived!
Now the only thing missing is the 
fall like temperatures! 
But to get you a bit in the mood of the upcoming
Halloween season I actually (for a change) got an
early start on my cards!
"Dress up the Cat"
is for all my cat loving friends,
including me.
 Kitty is stamped with the new Art Impression stamp set "Howl-oween".
 Sparkly pumpkin embellishment.
 The kitty is the spitting image of one of our fur babies,
our Russian Blue "Max",
and "No" we do not dress him up for Halloween,
also he should wear a cape on occasion, 
the way he flies through the house and over furniture, LoL!
The letters for "Boo!" are dies and 
the spider web was cut with Cricut cartridge
"Potions and Spells".
The itty bitty spiders are a punch.
 I hope you liked my
"It's Halloween...
time to dress up the cat"
card.
The stamp set also features a cute dressed up doggie,
I might get creative and make a few cards 
for my dog loving friends!

Last but not least a little update on my
 crochet afghan...
... it's growing nicely...
... just a few more color sets to go.
I have to admit the longer I been working on it
the more I fall in love with the colors and pattern.
It sure will keep me warm on cold winter nights!

Thank you so much for taking time to stop by!
Just curious, do you dress up your pet for
Halloween?
Have a wonderful week,
to next time!

Flying high!

 Hello everyone
and 
I'm hoping you are having a great weekend!
It's still hot around here
but you can feel a bit of Fall in the air.
The County and State Fair has come and gone,
school is back in session,
the morning air is a bit crisper and
some of our trees are losing their leaves.
I'm not sure I'm ready for Fall or even what comes
after it, I wished summer could last forever!
Anyway,  welcome to September!
September marks not only the beginning of Fall
but is also my uncles Birthday month.
So for the special occasion I created this
Hot Air Balloon card for him.  
 "Flying High"
Image was stamped with a 7gypsies stampset
by Hampton Art.
 Hot Air Balloon was cut with the Cricut  cartridge
"Victorian Romance" in two different sizes.
4 inches for the background and 
2.5 inches for the smaller front one.

 A bit of sparkle.
I know, the Balloons are actually meant for
Valentines Day,
but they were the only ones I could find on my cartridges
and since I'm sending lots of love his way,
they will work! 

Thank you so much for stopping by!
Hope you have a great weekend 
and a wonderful week ahead!
