My Layout for Kitchen Keepsake LO Tag

We were playing Layout Tag at Kitchen Keepsake this past month.  I started it off with my great love for two things in life..
Coffee and Cheshire Cats!!  :)
I have a small collection of Cheshire Cat mugs and had to document them.
Coffee with a smile will brighten anyone's day! 

If you want to check out the progression of the Layout Tag, pop on over the Kitchen Keepsake!  It's a great place!

I hope that your day is full of smiles!  :)

Summer Beauty

I was challenged to create a layout this week.  There were a few stipulations..
NO cardstock.
Fabric.
and Ephemera.

Ok...I can do this! 

I used Basic Grey, Crate Paper, and Graphic 45 for my papers.  My flowers were created with Basic Grey and Ranger Crackle Accents.  The tattered rose and trim are from crepe-back satin (the same I used for the flower I made on my dress!)  There's an American Crafts Rosette in there as well.  Title is a Studio Calico font.  All the buttons are vintage and from my Nan and Nanna's sewing cabinet I inherited.  Tickets are recycled from a raffle I went to! 

This was a fun challenge to be a part of!  Can't wait for another challenge to crop up!

Stay cool!

Recent work for Layout Tag games

I've been playing "Layout Tag" at a couple of sites recently.  It's a fun game and what you do is to use the layout of the person before you as inspiration.  Also a twist was added...a challenge created by the person ahead of you!  Some of the challenges that are occurring are doozies!! 



I hope that you have a great day!

To Love a Cat

Elizabeth LOVES her cat.  She reminds me of myself when I was her age.  Totally in love with my Softy and he was happy enough..or was that dumb enough..to put up with my antics.  Cleo, Elizabeth's cat, is much more intelligent that my Softy was.  She's quick, cunning, but a devoted Mommy Cat to her kitten, Elizabeth. 

Doesn't Cleo look "thrilled" to have her picture taken!  :)

Have a great Day!
