Cats and Bats Layouts

Every time I go to type in Cats and Bats, I want to write it as Bats and Cats.  Must be the alphabetical  side of my brain. :)  Oh well, Cats, Bats, whatever, here are a few cute layouts you can create with the Cats and Bats paper packet.
 

While these layouts were created using the Cats and Bats Workshop Your Way, you can easily create the same using X7224B Cats and Bats Paper Packet,  X72241D Cats and Bats card stock pack, X7224C Cats and Bats complements.

Here are the inks used with Cats and Bats

In order to help all those affected by the fires and hurricanes, CTMH has created this special stamp set with all proceeds going to the Red Cross.

Because all proceeds go to the Red Cross, the cost of this stamp set will not count towards any

I absolutely love this one.  I don't know if it's because the photos seem to fade away.  Whatever it is, it looks so lovely.
Here are a couple more.


You can create all these layouts from G1139 Falling for You Workshop Your Way.

You can find the cutting instructions to create all three layouts on my website.

Here are the inks used with Falling for You.

More of my Creative Outlets

I think I have done almost every craft there is. Still have macrame rope, reeds for baskets, and lots of other crafty things. Now, to just find out what else is in those boxes. LOL I'd love to learn stain glass, as that is one I've never tried. Someday...

I think my favorite one is painting. I could paint all day, everyday, if I had the opportunity. My best friend and I started painting mailboxes at the same time. We were hooked after watching Donna Dewberry on QVC one day. Of course, every time Donna was on, she had a new kit that we had to have. :)

Sadly, I lost my best friend in June of 2002. I've continued to paint, both as a way of remembering her, and, also make a little money.

These are the most recent ones that I've taken into the shop where I sell them.
