She's Got Cattitude!!!!

I've been busy, busy today. While Rachel was taking her nap, I put the finishing touches on 1 card for our Technique Club meeting this Saturday, then completely made another one for this same event. Pictures have been taken and saved but I will wait to upload them to my blog so I won't spoil the surprise for anyone in the club. I just received my first order from The Cat's Pajamas and I am so loving this little Kitty! We have a black cat known around these parts as Pepper Kitty or just Pepper for short. Side note: Kids come up with some of the dangest names for pets. Growing up my younger sister named a cat "Goose." I have no idea where that came from but out of the 3 of us she is the most creative and artistically talented. Anyway, I made this little card for my friend's, Susan, birthday. She is not a cat person (due to allergies) but they do have a pool in their backyard and I thought the sentiments were so appropriate for a mother of 4 children ages 3-10. I used this same layout, color scheme etc. to create a thank-you card but I used the Stampendous bee images instead. I liked the bee card better but will wait to post it until the recipient has a chance to open it. Well, it's "Take your Child to Work Day" at NASA tomorrow so Dan is taking Mary Elizabeth with him. That means I will have NO help with the Wild Child! Better wrap this up so that I will have plenty of strength to cope! Take care!
