Here is a recent pic of my BIG boys.  They are behind my computer on this small table.  Lately they have taken to sleeping there while I type.  Cute!!

Here is my big boy.  This does show his size, but he is a happy and secure boy.  I just keep saying that he is fluffy and big boned boy.  I love him.

Here is cute Little Boy looking at me on his favorite spot.  I think his back legs are soooooo cute.
 

Here is Little Boy doing his favorite sport.  Watching Birds!!!

Here is a picture of Flyboy's grave. I looked out the window the other day and this is what I saw.  What a great tribute to a wonderful cat.

Here are my two boys looking out the sliding glass door at the birds.  Sorry is it not clear, but you can see them.

Here is Big Boy, recently renamed Chubby, playing on my kitchen floor.  It is amazing that he can get his feet so high up.  He is so cute.

I also have animals outside my home.  Here is a very talented squirrel.  He can hang from his feet and pull seeds out of the round feeder.  I do not like him to eat the birdseed, but he is so DANG cute and so talented. His tail is on the top and his face is at the bottom eating seeds.  The post on top of the Big boy looks as though the cat is looking at him. LOL.

More kitty pics.  Here are a couple of pics of my BIG Boy.  Isn't he cute and massive?  I love big kitties.  I tell my friends that he is not fat, just big boned and fluffy. LOL.

I wanted you to see what happens in my craftroom.  I showed you one pic where they are on my table, but here they are in their paper lid boxes gazing out the window at the birds.  I like this pic as they are EXACTLY the same.  They are something.

 Here is another pics of a pair of geese outside who come back every year to have babies.  I feed them before they sit on their nest, so that they will bring their babies up to feed when they are hatched.  Last year we did not get babies as I think that the fox or raccoon ate the eggs.  I am hoping that I get some babies this year as they are super cute.  If I do, I will post some pics.

Here is how I have to craft sometimes.  My boys love me so much that they have to sleep on my craft/Cricut table while I am working.  I do not get to use my Cricut, but I can work until they decided to get up and leave, which was about one hour.  They are so cute that I cannot put them down.  Spoiled, well I guess.

While wandering the craft store in our town, I came across a package of these little tiny brown grocery bags.  I thought to myself, "Self, these will be useful", so I bought a couple of packages.  I finally came up with this Christmas tag and of course it had to have a cat in the bag.  Cat lovers know how much cats love bags, sooooo.....Here it is, Enjoy!

Due to the fact that mags , the winner of my giveaway, did not contact me.....I am now awarding the giveaway to kparks@embarqmail.com.  Please contact me at catlady709@comcast.net with your pertinent information.  Congrats.

I am doing my first craft show on Saturday and I decorated this Purell bottle for my table.  A friend of mine wanted to see it, so I am posting it.

It's All About the Bears Blog Hop!

Welcome to "It's All About The Bears Blog Hop!  As you can see, it is all about the "bears" from the Cricut Lite Teddy Bear Parade Cartridge!  You should have arrived here from SHARON.  We have decided to showcase these adorable bears from this cartridge!



Today, tomorrow and Monday we will have a brand new HOP LIST with brand new projects to show you each day.  I am only in the hop today, so be sure to start at Lucy's blog tomorrow and Sunday for the new hop list, or you can see each day's hop list at the end of this post.

This is my entry to the Teddy Bear Parade Hop.  I chose the bedtime bear.

 I cut her at 3" and the small bears on the bed were cut from Create a Creature 2 and were cut at 1-1/2".  The background paper is from Martha Stewart Essential Paper Pad.  The bed was cut at 3" and I used the Sugar and Spice Cartridge.  I put white flowers on the bedspread and on the bear's nightie.  I cut the picture from a catalog and typed the sentiment on my computer and punch it out with a scalloped punch.

Thanks for stopping by today! Below you will see the HOP LIST for each of the 3 days. Have fun hopping and getting some Teddy Bear Parade inspiration!

I made a card for my sister in law as she just had her second cataracts  done. She was so surprise and laughed so hard about it.  I first cut the basic Teddy out "Fit to Page" but that was too big, so I cut him out at 8". 

Here is a set of Hello Kitty cards that I just finished.  The cards are cut at 3" and there are 10 of them.  I cut the purse from the Artiste cartridge.  The purse also has 10 envelopes.

Here is one of my forest friends drinking from my bird bath.  It is so hot that he needed a drink.  I am sorry for the screen texture to the picture but I had to take it through my bedroom screen as that was the closest point.
