Hi, Friends!
Long time no see here on my blog for posting anything. It's been busy around here. I volunteered to make 70 kits for mission Sunday for next week. Christmas cards will be sent to nursing home residents. I put my time to great use when I went to the craft crop this past weekend by doing a lot of stamping and trimming out images and sentiments for the cards. I'm nearly done, yeah! I'll show you a sneak peek of them later. We had the apple festival here this weekend, too...perfect weather!
For the above card, Sheila is in her mummy costume. She certainly was ready a few weeks ago when she had her bandages on after having had surgery. But, she is back to "normal"! And, she is excited about a new fur addition to the family!
After my last post with my Halloween card with a black cat, I mentioned that we had a black cat at one time. I said I miss Blackie. I guess you have to be careful what you say. My husband said he found a black cat in our yard recently. We believe someone dropped it off. We get strays at times and that is how we got our first cat, Misty. She was black and white like this cat. We think this cat is a male and have an appointment this week to take it to the vet. I asked on FB if it is anyone's cat. We were 50/50 about keeping it. I don't know how old it is, but it is a tiny thing and so very cute and friendly. We still don't have a name for it yet...maybe Boots...but still thinking on it.
Here is the little cutie...
Ok, like I've said before it seems feast or famine for my blog lately. I have a few more posts towards the end of the week with DT assignments. Thanks so much for taking the time to drop by! Have a wonderful week! Hugs!!
Two great cards Maria, so cute. It sounds like you have been super busy making all those kits, but I'm sure they will be appreciated. Your new little cat is just adorable. xx

Your sister's cards are adorable, Maria! Love that Sheila inspired them! Your new furbaby is so cute! Would you believe, our neighbors just "adopted" a kitten that stayed around their house for weeks & no one claimed. She turned out to be He, so his name changed from Lucy to Louie! Their old girl cat is not happy! Hope your little one gets a clean bill of health!
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are fabulous and what fun Halloween scenes and 'Sheila' looks adorable, especially in her Mummy suit...lol x. Well done you on making so many cards and what an adorable addition to the family x.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your card, it is so cute and my daughter would love it too, she has 3 chihuahuas! Glad you are keeping the kitten, we have SIX cats and that is how we got them all, they just showed up basically, 3 in and 3 out, I have yet to pick out my own cat lol! Thank you for joining us at Two Old Bats Halloween challenge!

Sheila looks cute as a queen or disguised as a mummy. Your sisters will enjoy these. Good for you making 70 kits. That's a lot of time consuming work for a great cause. I'm glad Sheila is back to her healthy self so she can play with her new friend. My son acquired two cats that just started hanging around too.
ReplyDeleteLove Boots, so cute. Your cards Maria, are fabulous designs and colours.

Oh what fun cards depicting your precious Sheila! I love how she's popping out of the pumpkin! You've been busy creating for others and that's a good thing, so congrats on that! As for the kitty, boots looks like the perfect name :)
