We're starting today with Becky's new Spook-tacular Sentiments set, and if you don't like this set....well, you just don't have the love of Halloween in your heart. :)  No seriously, though, it has 8 new Halloween sentiments for you to use alone or with images, or to create projects, put on scrapbook pages...you get the picture.

EYE might have went overboard today, but I think not. MME Halloween paper, MFT Spiderweb Die, May Arts black mesh ribbon, a fun sentiment from the new SPOOK-TACULAR SENTIMENTS. You get the EYEdea. Oh, and do you ever get that feeling like someone is watching you? Just me....ok.

TCPTues296...It's So True.

Hey there stampers, and welcome to this week's Cat's Pajamas Tuesday Challenge!! This week we are having a color challenge, and since I love a good color challenge, I decided to play along.

Now, my colors are a bit brighter, but it's SUMMER...and I like BRIGHTNESS!!!

For my card tonight, I used the SUUUUUPER cute new Show Me The Monkey. I paired it with some paper from the Echo Park Fine& Dandy. I used Raspberry Tart from PTI, Summer Sun from SU, and Whirly Pop from Bazzill. My white is from Michael's. I used the Inside Pinking Border CutUps for my border, and the Stitched Clouds CutUps for my clouds. My pinwheels were stamped separately, and I did use two of them from the set, colored them, then connected them with a Michael's brad. My buttons are from various vendors, and all have hemp cord put through them. I did use Lemon Drop grosgrain from MFT, and a spiral clip from Creative Express.  

And that sentiment.....oh, I laughed til I cried when I saw it. I love Alma so much, she's my spirit animal.

Here are the products I used from The Cat's Pajamas:

On top of using that CutUp, I also used the Stitched Cloud CutUps, and the Fancy Flips Frame CutUps. My paper is from the Kaiser Craft paper pad, Little One. I paired it with MFT cardstock in Soft Sky, Sour Apple, and Orange Fizz. The only other embellishment I had room for were Michael's brads...and I just realized that as I typed this.....

TCP Peeks Day Three-Seas The Birthday

I honestly don't know how I got so lucky to get to work for such amazing companies, but every release, when I see the new sets, I just get even more impressed with their products, and more excited about how lucky I am......seriously, don't pinch me.....I don't want to wake up, and let's face it, I don't sleep enough anyway.

So anyway, today at The Cat's Pajamas, we are are peeking the AMAZING new set, "Seas the Birthday"...it is TOO much fun!!

I paired my set with some Simple Stories Summer paper, and used the Dots CutUps to create my background....between it and the buttons from MFT, it makes me think of bubbles. For my image, I used Copics, then cut it out with and Oval Stax, then used Michael's brads, spiral clips, and some MFT Orange Grosgrain.

The Cat's Pajamas Peeks-Day Two

Peeks for this month's The Cat's Pajamas Peeks started yesterday, and although I didn't play along yesterday, I have a peek for you today....so ENJOY!!

Today's peek features the HE-LARIOUS new set "Lemons." I gotta say, I have never been more inspired to finish the inside of a card in my life, lol.

I used Penny Black paper for my card. My cardstock is Lemon Tart from PTI, Berrylicious and Kraft from MFT, and White from Michael's. I threw this all together and embellished it with MFT buttons in Banana Split, Sweet Tooth, and Berrylicious, a spiral clip, some Kraft grosgrain. The CutUps I used on my card are the new County Fair, Apron Border, and the Stitched Clouds.

I love this sentiment so much, it's super snarky, just like me. :)
