I love this little kitty. I believe it is from a Japanese cartoon called Kai's Happy Home. It has been a long time since I have seen it on you tube. It got removed sadly. It was so cool to watch. I couldn't understand the words but you really didn't need them to know what was happening.</div>

Wow! It is that time of year again! I used all dies on this card. The coffee cup die is from <a href="http://www.sugarpeadesigns.com/product/sugarcut-coffee-to-go-cup" target="_blank"> Sugar Pea Designs</a>. The other dies are from Aliexpress. I wanted to use the fall out of the die so I used the die cut and taped it down with washi tape and put all the pieces in to their position wit Tombow Multi Liquid Glue. Then I removed the die. I cut the rooster twice and colored the cuts with Colorbox Chalk inks. I held the bottom one together with double stick tape and used foam tape to mount it. Then I layered it all on some cork paper.<br />

Sometimes I cut them out and they end up in a bag or box waiting for me to make cards. I usually don't think of it and color up new ones when I make a card. I have determined to try to use them up. Those and paper scraps and die cuts that are also in a box. Whenever I get a new die I grab a scrap of paper from my drawer and cut it out right away and it gets put in a box. Supposedly I will use these whenever I need a quick card. I also have a large box of finished cards to choose from.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEid_hthFocYht0YYhH2O5KVhUFx_d-iQ7F04D_4KWngRZvkZjPiBR5R29mykVnHZY2sjAujicwGdHXYULCCZgdhuLCCAb2hLuHPhBDkcdrN2hyphenhyphentk-ezvEF7H2CHZxrksZr9HYhnBK01X1GX/s1600/IMG_20180301_223902980.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEid_hthFocYht0YYhH2O5KVhUFx_d-iQ7F04D_4KWngRZvkZjPiBR5R29mykVnHZY2sjAujicwGdHXYULCCZgdhuLCCAb2hLuHPhBDkcdrN2hyphenhyphentk-ezvEF7H2CHZxrksZr9HYhnBK01X1GX/s320/IMG_20180301_223902980.jpg" width="320" /></a>This cute set is from My Favorite Things.

I didn't think there was anything new that could be done with inks until I spotted these on youtube. I think they have been quite a surprise to everyone who has been around paper crafting community for awhile.</div>
On this tag I used: Walnut Stain, Vintage Photo, Broken China, and Faded Jeans. Then I used my <a href="http://www.sugarpeadesigns.com/product/sugarcut-coffee-to-go-cup" target="_blank">Sugar Pea Designs</a> Sugar Cut- Coffee To Go Dies. The cup sleeve is a scrap from my stash. I am really trying to use up some of that stuff out of my scrappy drawer.<br />

I got him on Black Friday from the Humane Society. I had picked him from a picture online. His picture just popped out to me and his name is my nickname for my little nephew. I was originally going to look for an older cat. Because of the looooooong wait for adoption on black friday they only let you see 2 animals. The other kitty I looked at, when I read his paperwork, I saw he didn't get along with other animals, so he was out. </div>

I ended up with a leather cord and a slip knot and he does pretty good with that. He thinks he wants to go out and explore the hallways. I haven't taken him outside yet and I don't want him out on my balcony because there is a tree right next to it and I can see him jumping over. I did get him a harness but it is too big right now and he can get out of it. The problem with the slip knot is when he freaks out he pulls back and it tightens around his neck. He is not comfortable with other people yet. If he sees someone in the hallway he freaks and does his best Halloween kitty and pulls away, so I pick him up to make him feel safe but he will put up a fight. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
He had an ear infection when I got him and has been feeling much better now. He spent the night of the super moon bouncing off the walls and knocking everything over for about 10 hours. ah, youthful energy. He let me sleep last night.</div>

I added some of the pop corn with foam tape for a little dimention. I could see this little girl watching a movie with her pop corn and a playful kitten flying through the air and causing quite a mess. I use a piece of pop corn as the O in the word pop. I would love the matching dies for this set. Hand cutting pop corn is a pain. LOL</div>

So cute! The stamps are from <a href="http://www.sugarpeadesigns.com/product/great-catch" target="_blank">Sugar Pea Designs</a>. They have so many cute images. I am still trying to conquer the alcohol marker. I need a lot more practice. They color up much faster than colored pencils (my usual go to coloring product). This is rather love hate for me. I can get an image colored quickly but I enjoy taking my time with pencils and layering, plus they are erase able. Every time I have tried the trick of moving marker color with the clear blender I end up with a huge area of bleed. I will keep trying, but I don't see them as my go to for awhile.</div>

They have 3 different colors of lead all mixed in one pencil. They look cool, but will I ever use them and for what? so, if I want to keep them I need to know that I will use them. So first I cut up a couple of pieces of card stock 4 1/4 by 5 1/2 and scribbled a full sheet. The colors are pretty and change on a regular. I smudged them with Gamsol and a Q-tip to blend them up.</div>

This was the first card that I made with this stamp set from <a href="http://www.stampendous.com/shop/stamps/stamp-sets-with-cutting-dies/cling-poised-peacock-stamp-set/" target="_blank">Stampendous</a>. I had just gotten the full first set of Distress Oxide inks. I had to get them after seeing so many videos on what you could do with them. So I had been playing with them when the stamps and dies arrived. After coloring the paper I used the stencil with a makeup sponge and some Luminare' paint. Then I decided that I wanted my Peacock to be shiny too. I grabbed my set of gel pens from <a href="https://www.colorit.com/collections/gel-pens/products/premium-48-gel-pen-set-with-case-refills-and-box" target="_blank">Color It</a>. I used the glittery ones and didn't have to worry about using them up because they come with refills and they also sell refills separately. I love their products. They make it easy to buy a set of markers, gel pens and colored pencils. As you can see in the 2nd photo they really sparkle. That was the perfect touch to make my Peacock really pop. The words "Hello Gorgeous" are from <a href="https://heroarts.com/collections/color-layering/products/cl962-color-layering-flamingo" target="_blank">Hero Arts</a> Color Layering Flamingo.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The kids were outside walking around and spotted a baby bird that had been blown out of his nest. That little spot is the blood stain where he fell. It was so windy for several days. Then it was rainy for the next few days. I didn't get this picture till several days later. Anyway, they brought the little guy in and we cleaned him up a bit and I gave him some water with a dropper. I didn't think he would make it at this point. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggc9Jb9OM96edUY68mp-fS_qvolo3NLL28Su4_47LTYcOXNR3Ia7iYEhqSjGSPOEVOMNGm1BfJpgYO8u292znIAUlPjTHMjs46vT5ZJcq1hhbTPF7wR_KqZ6YISJV2VcuddZ5UQGUz6aIf/s1600/DSC04860.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="150" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggc9Jb9OM96edUY68mp-fS_qvolo3NLL28Su4_47LTYcOXNR3Ia7iYEhqSjGSPOEVOMNGm1BfJpgYO8u292znIAUlPjTHMjs46vT5ZJcq1hhbTPF7wR_KqZ6YISJV2VcuddZ5UQGUz6aIf/s200/DSC04860.JPG" width="200" /></a>We couldn't find any rescues to take him so off to google what to feed a bird. He was pretty big for a baby so I guessed he was a Mourning Dove. They hang out in the tree outside my apt. where he was found. The mix I used was dry cat food that had been soaked in water and Cream of Wheat. By day 3 he was much more active and ate as much as I could manage to get in him. Honestly, I think more was on me and my desk than in him, but he seemed to be getting stronger and more active. We did actually leave him in a box under the tree for parental pick up for the first 2 days, but they never came and at night I would bring the box up and put him out on my balcony next to the tree.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUHW0USe8_IXHPP29xCRDrH1RZ7Tf-l_9xrKn4m59PCGwN229zDO68w3TkWNt8n96ZkeAtxIg9Y3P1ZzBifbtNjDiHz3Zpbz_TVmokEMP7kbBUaN-n4wax6LA3TvEijAKHtMA4dEIlvvDQ/s1600/DSC04851.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUHW0USe8_IXHPP29xCRDrH1RZ7Tf-l_9xrKn4m59PCGwN229zDO68w3TkWNt8n96ZkeAtxIg9Y3P1ZzBifbtNjDiHz3Zpbz_TVmokEMP7kbBUaN-n4wax6LA3TvEijAKHtMA4dEIlvvDQ/s320/DSC04851.JPG" width="320" /></a>The following picture is my cat napping near Boid's box. Yup, I got attached enough to name him and was starting to enjoy feeding him and watching him stretch his wings. Then after about a week, I woke up and tried to feed him and he looked like he was gasping for air or choking. We buried him in the back yard under a bush and made a little shrine. I cried a lot that day and felt like a bad mom. So helpless of a feeling, not being able to help him.</div>

What has happened to me and my art? Part has been that I have been going through my things to get rid of things i no longer need or want. My friend and I also have decided to get an RV and travel.....sooooo I need to get rid of a lot of stuff. Yup, I am a craft hoarder. I have spent many years trying every craft under the sun and holding on to the items because I might want to do them again some day. And yes, I would go back to them many times over the years. Sometimes friends would come to me looking for some craft item and I always had it to give. Now the time has come to unload these and get money for our new home. I have barely made a dent and the sales have slowed which is frustrating and rather depressing.I would drop the whole pile at Goodwill but the truth is we need the money to get the RV. I have a few more pictures to post, but this is it for now. </div>

They also offer colored pencils and a great set of gel pens that come with refills! </div>
