Kitty Friend Card

Hi, everyone!  Thought I'd share with you a quick 3x3 card that I made using Joy's Life's Lot's Of Pun, Paper Smooches' Nine Lives stamp set, and washi tape.  I sent one to Joy to show my appreciation for letting me be part of her wonderful design team. 


I had fun coloring these images and the 3x3 format seems to work well for me.  I'll be making more of these in the future.

Hope you have a good week!

A Very Belated Blog Hop Winner!!


Wow!  How can it be that my last post was in August?   Time sure does fly!  Well to give you a update as to what I've been up to, I decided to take time off from blogging and focus a little more on work and other hobbies.

 In September, our house was one of many that experienced flooding during the heavy rains in Colorado.  While we were VERY fortunate to still have a roof over our heads, there was a lot of work to be done since our basement was now a wall to wall carpet soaked mess.  We decided that we could handle doing all the flooring and painting ourselves....so that's what became my next project!  

Here are shots of the hallway and family room after we finished it.



We also did two more bedrooms and the storage room for a total of 1000 sq ft.  It was lots of work but it was really gratifying!  So gratifying that we started work in the living room painting the second fireplace and having a wood stove installed.   (Isn't that how things go?)


You guys have waited so long so without further ado, the winner of this blog hop with her choice of any Joy's Life stamp is:



Claire, please email me your mailing address to Crafty_kitten@mac.com and choice of Joy's Life stamp and I'll get it out to you ASAP! 

Thanks to everyone who dropped by.  I hope the past few months have been kind to you!  

I have been working on some paper crafts and hope to get some posted on my blog soon! 

Take care,

Patty
