PERCIVAL's REALLY BAD DAY JUST GOT WORSE :-)

 Hello Peeps,

I'm back in here again today with a creation I have made for the SISTERHOOD OF SNARKY STAMPERS challenge, which is P for Penguins.

I found this penguin and coloured and added him a festive Chrimbo hat. It made me chuckle to myself about my weather here in Greece and some really chilly weather people get elsewhere in the world at this time of year, so that it was inspired this card :-D   Shouldn't brag really but it's still gorgeous here :-D :-D

Also - he looks like I feel about yet another Lockdown as I am sooooo hoping it's not going to delay my operation, although apparently, I can get a permit to travel for medical purposes :-)  Keeping my fingers crossed. I don't want to do another dose of chemo before we get this done cuz #4 really sh*tted me up:-(

Thanks for popping by today and I hope you aren't freezing your nuts off in chilly weather.

Stay safe out there xoxo

KITTY ATC

So today I tried to make something with my chemo numb fingers  -You should have seen the mess I got into trying to pick up and stick those teeny googly eyes on   :-D :-D :-D  LoL 

A very dear friend sent me this little Kitty die cut and I think he's supposed to be a Bookmark from the way his paws lift up.

I have cut him out and stuck him on an ATC with cat paw background and then I coloured him with some stripes like my Sam  who is a Blorange cat :-D 

 I left the paws sticking up so I can still use the whole thing as a Bookmark :-) 

Well there he is and I am quite pleased to have had a go at crafting after such a while :-)

I have posted him also on my Cats Only Challenge site - SHOW US YOUR PUSSY CATS and I hope you will come along and play there, all you kitty lovers. =^..^=

As always the Theme is FURRYTHING GOES   =^..^=

Hello  Kitty Peeps,

Well - here we are again ready for the 2020 CAT HOP. Janis is putting in all her hard work again to bring you this FUR-bulous Hop and loads of Prizes.

I am Sponsoring again this year....... not sure if I will be drawing a new exclusive set for this year because I am struggling with the effects of my Chemotherapy treatment just now. :-(

Anyways - I am sure there will be tons of Prizes and I am putting together a package of 'physical' prizes =^..^=

Hope to see you all there 

=^..^=

CRAFTY DAY

Hello Peeps,
The weather is very cloudy today so no playing in the garden and it's a bit too dingy to be able to paint the bedroom walls - I won't be able to see if I have good coverage - so today I am having a play in my craft room.
Here's my first card of the day made with images from BECCY's PLACE.
I snagged this Free mason jar and put it with one of Beccy's cats from the " CAT'S MEOW " set.

I printed the kitty twice - one time a big bigger - so that his head is bigger to allow for the refraction of the glass jar.

Inside I have also used the CHOCOLATE STRAWBERRIES from BECCY.

I used paw print backing papers by ERIN CROUCH STUDIO - At The Zoo Set  available from PIXEL SCRAPPER, and THE COTTAGE MARKET -  Free Pawprint Papers.

I also followed the Sketch over at Beccy's MAY Challenge, but I flipped it to Landscape.

  

I am playing with some other stuff to enter more Challenges so I'll catch you all later.

Thanks for popping in :-)

KITTIES GALORE

Hello Peeps,
During March I collected a FUR-bulous kitty Scrapbook kit that was offered Free on a daily basis for the whole month. The digital kit is by by DREAM4EVER DESIGNS.
This  is a gorgeous kit, and has loads of kitties in it.

I have made a scrapbook page using  it.

This is also my show piece over at this month's Cats only Challenge - SHOW US YOUR PUSSYCATS #53.   I have also drawn a brand new FREEBIE kitty that you can snag if you go over there and Follow the Blog. There are lots more kitty freebies up the top of the Blog on the Freebies Page. :-)

I hope you are all keeping safe and well.

Thank you for popping in.

LOOK OUT IT's THE EASTER CATBUNNY :-D

Hello Peeps.... I'm back again today !! :-D

I have made this card to enter the new CLEVER DEXTER CHALLENGE #4 - Bunny Hop.  Well - they didn't say it had to be a real Bunny :-)

I used one of my images from IKEsART called - " EASTER CATBUNNY ".  A cute kitty sitting in an Easter basket. He has cunningly taped his ears down and added some bunny ears to disguise himself hahahaha :-D
He was coloured with Spectrum Noir markers and his backing papers and eggs are from the " Egg-Stravaganza Set " by  Miggins Does Scrapsville.

I have also gone with the colours of the sketch palette.

Thanks for stopping by.
