Day of the Month Card Club - Hug your Cat Day

Hi Everyone,



This month we are celebration "Hug your Cat Day".
Now I am sure a lot of people can relate to that.

We also have a Guest Designer with us - it's the fabulous, creative and oh so funny Darnell from djcardkreations! You can't miss her cute card - so don't forget to check out the blog post!


On my last visit to Germany I could not resist to pick up this grumpy looking cat from Hein Design - a German company. I thought it would be perfect for this challenge. The background is made with a Tim Holtz stencil, the sentiment is from Honey Bee Stamps.


Now I hope you will have time to 

I am counting on you! You have until the end of the month (6/30) to do so.

This is a voting challenge - the winner will be determined by vote. Everybody can vote, even if you didn't play along. Voting starts on the first of the following month - June first. 
The 3 participants with the most votes will win. 
The winners will be showcased on the 5th of each month and the new challenge will start each month on the seventh.
And to make it more fun and appealing it would be great if you could comment on at least 3 other participants - perhaps you'll find some new friends that way. 


There is always a reason to celebrate!

I can certainly see why you couldn't resist this grumpy puss. What a cutie.
Hahaa! That is so funny. What an expression on that cat. And, the sentiment gets right to the point too. I love it.

Fabulous and fun card, Cornelia ! I LOVE cats, so yes I'd love to play with you this month. On the contrary I'm not sure I would try to hug this cat when he has this grumpy face ! So funny. Thanks so much for sharing and for playing along at ATSM.

I opened the frame on the side to have the butterflies and color spill out. Added lots of splatters and the heat embossed sentiment Your next stop on the hop is the talented Henriette - you are going to love her card!

Easter Egg and Bunny

Hi Everyone, I made a bunch of Easter cards, after all its little more than one month and I need to send them out in time... You see, they are all similar - using both the die cut and the negative, that I cut from a die cut egg. The cute bunnies got their yearly appearance - they are from Impression Obsession. the egg is by Lifestyle Crafts. The sentiment is by Papertrey. And here are bigger photos from this set: Linking up with Creative with Stamps - Easter The Paper Players - die cutting Die Cut Divas - animals Happy Little Stampers - anything goes with dies

Addicted to Stamps and More #134 and Spotlight Sneak Peek

Hi Everyone, Its challenge time at  ATSM ! For the next two week its going to be CAS - just my thing! And hopefully yours, too! I made a birthday card, because for some reason I always need more and never seem to have enough.... I was inspired by this weeks Make it Monday , where the talented  Ashley Newell  shows us a video about  stamps and doodling. Since I  mainly own die cuts from Papertrey and not so many stamps that would fit this theme I made my own out of fun foam, using my latest Papertrey dies (just got the order a few days ago) and cut those in fun foam - it works so well - voila - you have our own stamps, spending only a fraction of the money! I doodled around the stamps as you can see. Gives you kind of a cool effect....a little more tremor and one would think I drank too much ;) Added tiny enamel dots - do you know about this month House of Cards challenge - its enamel dots - thought I'll let you know.....
