{PIN}spirational Challenge #24: Photo Inspiration - Cat & Daisy




Are you a "cat person"? Well, I definitely am! I love dogs, but cats are so independent, which I love.

For {PIN}spirational Challenges, you are challenged to create any craft using the photo as inspiration. Isn't this kitty oh, so cute?

Do you have any cats? I do. My cat is 13 years old, a big 'ol orange tabby with the sweetest personality and a complete mama's boy. He's been there for me through everything and is my oldest friend.





The idea behind this creation came from my fellow teammate at Tuesday Alchemy, Marion. I created a mirror with the reflection of the girl in it. Thanks, Marion, for the wonderful idea!

The girl's funky dress and hat were made with lots of dots of white & hot pink. Super fun!

This week's sponsor at {PIN}spirational Challenges provided the digital stamp. Fresh Brewed Designs creates stamps of all kinds, including rubber and digital. It's where "creativity is brewed fresh daily."

Happy Christmas From Paris

I wish I could say those four words to you: "Happy Christmas From Paris!" Unfortunately, I am not able to travel there this year, but maybe one day . .

Is there somewhere in the world you'd like to be? Where? I'd love to hear from you :)

A Mini Christmas Wreath

Christmas will be coming soon. Yeah, there is still months until than, but it's always good to get started on the holiday cardmaking.

This is a mini wreath that I made by hand before adding ribbon, gold stars & twine.

Have you started your holiday cards yet? Do you make them early or wait until the last minute?

Autumn




Good morning, my fellow crafters!

Here is a CAS card for your viewing pleasure. It's very . . . well, clean and simple. All of the elements are from my massive stash, including the card base which I had made previously.

Strike A Pose, Reindeer



My new thing is dry embossing patterned paper. It adds so much more to it, including extra texture.

Unfortunately, the embossing is hard to see in this photo, but the cardstock (not the red) under the reindeers is embossed with snowflakes.

The charm is actually a tiny cookie cutter in the shape of a pine tree. Isn't that just charming? Ha!

Speaking of cookie cutters, do you make Christmas cookies during the season? What's your favorite?
