1 + 1 = Us

Here is the image for the progressive challenge #6 with these adorable Valentine Cats at Sasayaki Glitter.  The sentiment is from TLC.  I can't have live plants around my cats since they eat the leaves or knock over the pot/vase.  My finance's cat don't even look or disturb where mine could never sit on a pot like that without being "naughty".  Mine would also push the other one off, hehe.

Wishing you a tub full of fun!

We have had such variations in weather the past few days.  It was warm Tuesday and 43 so we had rain which was bad since the ground was frozen so I had water leak into my basement and not to the area where I have a water pump, but where I had new flooring placed.  So we were shop vacuuming it up and now I have fans trying to dry out the flooring and where it got onto some carpet.  Then it cooled off so it was freezing so we had slippery roads and slick travel.  Even on Wednesday afternoon the temp fell quickly and it was 22 and their was some freezing rain and then a dusting of snow so the roads were so slippery.  I went just a few miles for an appointment and I can't tell you how many accidents that I saw and car pile ups.  I luckily made it home and stayed here the rest of the night.  I don't mind snow just not this freezing rain and slippery roads and the salt trucks are out and it's just a mess.
For my card, I used an image that Paulette posted on Saturday at TLC as a freebie and a sentiment from TLC.  I distressed my papers.  I tried to use bright yellows, reds and teal to be cheery to take away from the drab day.  I also distressed some ink on the sentiment.  This image just reminds me of my three naughty kittens which now are sleeping, but I found that Jazzy stole a pair of my socks earlier today and was playing with them.

What's one more?

I have a friend who is planning to adopt a new Siamese kitten in November and she has other cats so this is the card that I made for her.  It is using a stamp from Doctor Digi House of Stamps called Katy the cat lady and I also used the Paw Prints Background paper.  The sentiment is one that Paulette from TLC made for me and put in her last club to go with this image.  I put glossy accent on the glasses, and a pearl for the earring.

A meow-tain of fun on your purr-fect day!

Here is the card that I made for my Dad this year for his birthday since he is ALWAYS giving me grief about my three Siamese cats.  He thinks that I don't have enough time for my furballs, but he doesn't understand that when I am home I enjoy having them and need them when I go to sleep.  He told me to get a pillow, but he doesn't understand the purr of the cat when you are relaxing to sleep.  I don't care - I have no intention to get rid of my cats or should I say they still allow me to live with them.  When he gives me grief, I just say that my boyfriend is going to move in with me and that he has two Siamese also so we will have five and then he usually shuts up because I think he knows someday that could happen, hehe.
