My good friend and colleague Laura picked up an Advanced Reader’s Copy of Catching Fire (the sequel to Hunger Games) when she was at BEA and sent it to me. It was fabulous!! I highly recommend this series for 6th grade and up. I saw her last week when she was in Boston for some family stuff, and I wanted to give her a little thank you gift. I know how much she loves cats, so I put together a pack of kitty cards using the new C is for Cat stamp set.The layout and design are from Michelle.
The cards are all the same and are blank on the inside.
Stamps: C is for Cat, P is for Paw Wheel
Ink: Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie
Paper: Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie, Razzleberry Lemonade, Whisper White
I even stamped the envelopes to match. I love doing that. I think it adds such a fun touch!
Thanks again Laura!
I’m very excited about the second swap I am in for the Stampin’ Up convention. When I get the pieces back, I will have an alphabet book, where each page has a letter and an animal made of punch art to match. There are 13 people in the swap, and each of us are doing two letters. I chose to do “D” for dog and “L” for lion. A big thanks to Angie Kennedy Juda for her fabulous lion and dog punch art designs.

We had very specific instructions as to size and design of the pages so that they will all fit together nicely into one 6″ x 6″ album. I can’t wait to see the other 24 letters!
These 3″x3″ cards are quick, easy, and super cute! They could be used as kids’ Valentines, or just as fun notes to stick in a child’s lunch box, backpack , or locker. I just love the facial expressions on the Wild About You animals. They are too cute! You could easily make this card with any of the animals. I just picked these two for an example.
