You're the cat's meow! ♥

 

 

Hi friends!

  You are absolutely PURR-fect! ♥

 

Today's the 9th of the month,

which means the 3 Musketeers {Barb, Jeanette and I}

will post cards from an image mailed out by the hostess ...

and this month it's me! :)

 

I chose this garden kitty image from Elzybells, 

one of my very, very, VERY favorite stamp companies of all time!

I haven't inked it up in years but it remains one of the treasured

stamps in my collection that will stay with me forever ♥

I cherish my Elzybells stamps so much!
They came all the way from England and I'd stalk my mailman
for weeks after I'd order the stamps ♥

I was heartbroken when Elizabeth (owner/designer of Elzybells)
 closed up shop but I was able to scoop up a many of the wooden stamps

before they were gone forever *smile!*

 

 
 

With my card designing, I start with chosing the papers first,

 then I chose a layout,

then color the image to match the dsp!

 I'm always in awe when I hear

folks say they color their image first,

because for me - I'd spend HOURS in the Cabana if I did that,

looking for papers to match what I'd just colored!

 

The inside of my card is the matching sentiment to this stamp,

and truly, in the garden of life,

friends help us blossom into the beautiful people that we are ♥

 

And, you may have noticed, I missed last month's 3M post :(

I'm in the doghouse for that, I'm sure.

Truth is, I can't find my card anywhere!

I'm not able to recreate as I goofed the other image but as soon as my card is found,

I'll be sure to post it.
Meanwhile, please stop by and see what Barb and Jeanette have made, too!

 

As always, thanks for stopping by!
I hope your day is absolute purr-fection :)

  

Big Hugs, Bigger Blessings!
