You make me smile

I have another card for the Cat Lovers Hop.  My Dad and Uncle came today for the day to do a few things around my house and they haven't been at my house since April.  They used to come every couple of weeks so this is unusual this year.  One of the first things that my Uncle asked is where my male Siamese cat was since he always would have to check out what was happening in "HIS" house.  So I told him that he was no longer with us, and even though he acts like a tough guy, he was sad.  He said to me, "He was a good looking cat and was friendly."  I about fell over.  Then my Dad said, she still has two too many.  My Dad doesn't believe in having indoor pets.  I just said, "Dad, you know better than to start this discussion...again."  So for my card today, I used a digital image from Lili of the Valley.

Wreck the tree

This is something that I learned very quickly with having cats....no glass ornaments, no hooks and actually NO TREE.  So we haven't had a Christmas tree up for quite a few years.  My male Siamese cat passed away in July so I don't know if I dare try it again since I still have two 10 year old Siamese girls from the same litter that still get into trouble.
For this card, I used a new image from Mo Manning, called Meowy Christmas Cat and a sentiment from TLC, Create.  The beautiful gold ribbon is a win I got from Stampin' Up from Linda.

Newton in Christmas tree

I had this image colored last year, but never put a card together.  I colored it to match my male Siamese cat that passed away in July...he was only 12 years old, but the vet thinks he had abdominal lymphoma.  I miss him since he was the one who supported me the most and was always there for me.  He was also the naughtiest, and he is the reason we haven't had a Christmas tree in quite a few years either.
