Paper Smooches



This is my last post as Guest Designer for Paper Smooches. *sniff sniff*  It's been a thrill to be part of Paper Smooches this month and I look forward to the awesome inspiration the next Guest Designer brings. 

I have 2 cards today and both  use Chubby Chums and Hang Ups which are 2 of the new releases for May.  The June release is coming up fast and being a PS Club member means I get the new releases before the official release day---like up to a week early! 

The sentiment 'Hang in there' sparked the idea for this card and I sketched out this little scene.   Imagine a cat who so quietly climbs a tree and puts himself out on a limb for the reward of a juicy bird that's hanging out at the bird feeder only to watch the bird fly off just when it was in his grasp.  So, I suppose the moral of this story is sometimes we go for it and don't get it, so hang in there because it will be ok.   I  cut out the cat's eyes (ugh, that sounds terrible! LOL) and re-positioned them so he appears to be watching the bird.


This next card is one of my faves just because that puppy is so darn cute and I love the colors.  This card would be cute to send to a friend you don't see often enough and let them know you would like to get together.

Thanks for stopping by my neglected blog.  I have been sick and having some allergy issues which sucks the life right out of me--luckily I made all my Paper Smooches card earlier this month.  Also, my kids are now out for summer and we'll be on the go doing fun summer stuff very soon.   Alyssa, I'll be texting you soon from the pool complaining about the heat! LOL
