Good Night Kitties

Here is another old stamp from my stash, and I'm not even sure who made this one. It's mounted on a shaped plastic mount with a handle so I'm glad I don't have more like these, as storing them would be a pain. I combined this image with an embossing folder by Darice, square dies by Cottage Cutz, and even used some chocolate brown polka dotted ribbon (patting myself on the back for actually using ribbon, yikes!). I left it blank so I can add a suitable sentiment at some point. Believe it or not, I had only made two cat cards before the hop started, but once I got started, I couldn't stop! We are expecting our power to be turned off as early as tomorrow, as part of a push to prevent wildfires from starting in this high fire season. If that happens, I won't be able to stamp or craft at all, so I'm taking advantage of our power now!

  1. Hey, Karen. Do you live in CA? Fortunately we've escaped the power outages but I've been up since 12:30 and smelled smoke. Possibly a fire in the hills around here but no longer hear sirens and either I'm used to the smoke after nearly 2 hours of insomnia or things are under control. (We're in Livermore, BTW) Hope you escape the outages too as well as any wild fires. Anyway, LOVE your design and the turquoise and brown color scheme ROCKS! I think I'm gonna take the advice of your cute kitties and say night night again. xxD

  10. Wow...there are several hoppers in Livermore, or not far from it! Stay safe all of you!!! We are past our fire season here in Idaho (whew!) but I KNOW what it is like.

    Karen....this card is absolutely precious!! I am so glad you got another one of your ancient treasures out to play with. I love the sweet sleepy kitties and the pretty colors you used. Yay for using that cute dotty ribbon!! Lovely card in every way!!
    Thank you so much for playing along in the #2019CatLoversHop!!

  12. Love this colour combo and Yay for dusting off another older kitty stamp! I have a few of those plastic-handled stamps somewhere too but they are smaller than yours. And Yay for the ribbon too - I rarely remember to use it myself. Very cute card! You've got some wonderful kitty stamps and I love seeing them!

    I've heard of those forced power outages and I am sorry you will have to go through that - it's bad enough when we lose our power for bad weather (which happens way too much for my liking). Hope you are safe from the wildfires, very scary.

  14. Good luck with the power outages. But Wildfires are so frightening...

    I can't really complain as all we have is very heavy rain! And my printer has run out of ink so no digi printing!!

    Anyway this is a lovely stamp and you have used it to make a super card!
