Life is better in FlipFlops


Life is better in flip flops, words to live by. 
If you know me you know I have kind of an obsession with flip flop stuff. 
I blame mom. A few years ago she decided I needed to collect something. 
So well it became flip flop paraphernalia. 
We have flip flop salt n pepper shakers, flags, posters, patio lights, paper, vinyl sheet for the guinea pigs play pen, rugs, bathroom stuff (recently I swapped those out). 
Yeah a little much. 
But anyways I got this stamp set for that sentiment specifically.
So here’s my adorable little rocker card.

Supplies.
My Minds Eye Paper “reunion” available at Michael’s
Scrappy Mom stamps “Sun Kissed” 
Marigold twine which you  can pick up in my etsy shop!
 Pop dots

Hug Your Cat Day Blog Hop


SO this weekend I’m in a few hops
For Mother’s Day Blog hop Click here



Are you a crazy cat lady, but in a good way? I know I am.
Today is purina’s Hug you cat day. There are several hug your cat days and I
would love to hug my cat(s) on each and everyone. Today we are celebrating
cats! Diamonds, dogs’ pft. Cats are a woman’s best friend.

I have always had cats in my life. Recently we’re down to two. Oliver Twist and Kelala Lynn, Kiwi for short
I’ve had Oliver (OLI) for 14 years. From the time he was 2 days old I carried him around in the bib of my overalls. So naturally he thinks he’s my baby and needs to be carried. He’s always “helped” me with my homework. More like he lies on the book and attacks my pencils as I’m writing.
It’s hard to get a good pic of this layout I made.
So here’s the originally picture of Oliver, well instagram picture.

My darn cats get more likes on instagram than me. L





I used scraps… holy moly I used scraps.
I have a love hate relationship with my scraps mostly hate, I’m thinking bonfire and roasted marshmallows.
I used border stickers and ripped them to look like washi tape, btw I hate washi tape. I also am not fond of this style of page but I wanted to break out of my normal zone. And I actually really like the layout.


Today we are celebrating with all kinds of cat projects.
So sit back and lets hang out.
