Circles, Circles, Circles and a Sneak Peak

Sorry, it's been a couple days since I've posted, it was a rough weekend for me. First, I lost my wallet and then I had to put Oliver, my cat, to sleep. Yesterday I brought him to the vet and his tempature was 106.4 (the highest the vet has ever seen) and they put him on pain medication and anitbodics. This morning I woke up and he was doing no better, and was actually worse. So I brought him back in and now his temp was 108 degrees. They had no idea what was wrong with him and the next step was to put him into intensive care. I couldn't afford this and had to make the hard decision to put him out of a misery and put him down. It was a sad day.


Anyways, to keep my mind off of this, I spent the afternoon stamping. I made some cards for this weeks challenge on the LNS group, prepared for the blog tour that is the end of this week, and worked on a shoe box swap I have with my upline this week. The challenge for this week was cirles. The requirement is that the project must have at least three circles. I made three different cards and will show one tonight. This uses On a Pedestal, which is a new stamp set that will be in the new 2009/2010 catalog. Paper: Riding Hood Red, Tango Tangerine, Kiwi Kiss, window sheet, Whisper White, Pacific Point. Accessories: Reding Hood Red ribbon, circle sissors plus. Ink: Black Stazon, Tango Tangerine.

Hugs to you on the loss of your kitty. My first fur baby passed away 3 weeks ago (12 yrs old) and I still miss my sweetie.

Love your card - so different and original. The colors are great and the offset circles are just too cool.
