Never Too Cute.....

 Hello everybody: I hope you and your families are doing well, staying safe and healthy wearing your masks.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Welcome to another SHOPPING OUR STASH challenge, this time we want you to create cards featuring your FURRY BABIES.  No matter what you have, if it has fur, we want to see it.  Here's my card, mind you, all through my life, I've had all 3 types of pets on this card, most times at the same time, LOL!!

This is the INSIDE.

This is what I used.

The adorable fur critters are from 2 Kaztelkraft, The Dogs (Les Chiens)

and The Cats (Les Chats) The little mouse comes in the cat's set.

The bench is from a set from Altenew called Garden Grow 

The masks were "borrowed" from a House Mouse set called Masked Mice, I inked just the mask and altered it a bit to fit the cat, dog and mouse faces, then, I stamped them on a separate piece of card stock color and fussy cut them.😊

The sentiment inside is from a retired Power Poppy set called "Sassy Succulents"

The mask on the lower left corner on the inside was inked up from one of these mice images with a marker, stamped and colored with Prismacolor pencils. I'm very happy with how it turned out.

My teammates and I can't wait to see your "Fur Babies" cards, don't forget to go check out the SHOPPING OUR STASH challenge blog to get more inspiration from the rest of the Designer Team.

Thank you for visiting me today.

Stay healthy and safe.

The Angry Rat............

Hello everyone: I hope everyone is doing well, I know it's hard to stay inside and not being able to do what we used to do before this whole thing started, but we just have to stay strong and remember that, staying home helps a lot, especially those in the front lines, they are the heroes, God Bless You All.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I've been having a lot of fun using the rats from the Katzelkraft set called Les Rats des Villes, these critters are a riot, love them all. 

Yes, it is!!! Hahaha!! 

I stamped this fellow on a scrap piece of gray card stock and just added a bit of color with my Prismacolor pencils then fussy cut it, I put painters tape on the delicate parts like the ears, teeth and his tail just to give the paper a bit more sturdiness when I'm cutting it, the hole on the wall is a stamp of unknown origins, I've tried to find it "out there" but I couldn't, I'm sorry.

I stamped it on the brick pattern paper and then cut out the middle and glued my rat in front, I attached this panel to a dark gray panel with foam tape.

The sentiment is handwritten by me. 

***********************************************

This is how the INSIDE of my card looks like. 

The sentiment is from a Power Poppy set called "Sassy Succulents" (retired), and I stamped the bottom half of another rat to give the illusion it's like running away, LOL!!

I want to play with the following challenges.

I'm Here For You!!!!!!!

Hello everyone: I hope all of you are doing well, I know I say it every time I post here but it's my most heartfelt wish, stay healthy and safe, please.

Anyway, when this whole pandemic started, there was not one roll of toilet paper to be found, and I mean it!!! People ran to the stores and clear up the shelves, thank goodness it's not like that anymore, but my daughter next door and I shared some rolls when we were in dire need.

So here's a card I just made to remind all of us to help each other when possible.

This little rat is from a Katzelkraft set called Les Rats de Ville and they are hilarious!! This one can hold a few things in her hand so it's great for a lot of occasions.  The toilet paper roll was drawn by hand on heavy watercolor paper to give it some texture, I brought a roll to my craft room to look at it but it took me a few attempts to get it right because I wanted it to look kind of real, LOL!! I was going to make it with a straight edge at the end but I think torn looks better. It's a bit wonky on the top, I don't know why I just couldn't draw a straight line, sheeesh!! 

My rat was stamped with Stazon black ink and colored with Prismacolor pencils, the sentiment is written by hand.

*****************************************************

This is how the INSIDE of my card looks like.

The sentiment is from a Power Poppy set called Daffodils, which happens to be on sale right now, absolutely gorgeous images.

I want to play along with the following challenges.
