Love Ewe CAS

Well I hope that you had a great Valentines. I just had work and the love of my two Siamese cats....I did get a text from my daughter. I actually got my cats a haircut the day before so they are cuddly not sure if it's because they are cold or just didn't like leaving home, lol.
This week there is this adorable sheep, Love Ewe at Catch the Bug. I colored mine as a "black" sheep which I thought was fitting since I think that they are just so cute. And they need love too!

What the CLUCK?

Well I really was trying to do some cleaning, but ended up making a card. I had some items that have been in a drawer in my desk forever. The image is actually from Doodle Pantry (which is retired...Farm Critters Barn) and the sentiment is from TLC, Create.  I just thought that they were perfect for this weeks Sketch Saturday so I put them to use.  I dry embossed the background and found some fabric washi tape.

I woof you

Well, yesterday I had the card for my daughter and now I have the card that I made for my daughter to give to her boyfriend. So naturally it has another dog to look like Gus, their dog. It is agreed that he is spoiled and the love of their lives. I used a stamp and sentiment from Hero Arts, Merry Woof. This is using the Tuesday Morning Sketch 541, this is a re-visited sketch chosen by Melissa.

Valentine Greetings Vintage card

I have an image from a freebie site from many years ago and I didn't save who the maker was. I distressed the edges as well as distressed the edges of my paper.  This reminds me of my Grandmother who I miss greatly. She always gave such vintage looking cards and had doilies at her home.

Sending Pups & Kisses

I have a Grandpup, Gus and he is a Teddybear breed and is very playful.  My daughter has him sooooo spoiled. He usually goes with her to school on Fridays and he is a big part of her 4th grade class. This is a card that I made for my daughter using a stamp from My Favorite Things, Pups and Kisses. I heat embossed the sentiment in white.
