November Sneaky Peek #6

11 / 23 / 1911 / 23 / 19

Congrats! You’ve made it to Day #6 of Sneaky Peek Week. I’ve been wanting to do a celebration set for a while now. Besides graduation, there are so many other times we celebrate in our lives. A new baby, a promotion, getting a new job, being accepted into college… how about the New Year? And, who better to help us celebrate, but the long- eared bunny! Presenting “Winning!”

Cristena Bagne pops a bottle with her stunning New Year card. She uses the Twist Stencilz as a background and the NEW Shakey Numbers Stencilz, outlining the numbers to make them really stand out.

Beata June celebrates a big one with this cute bunny and the NEW Skinny Alphabet Stencilz helps create a custom message.

Beata June can’t stop celebrating, counting down the NEW Year and a little pop of bubbly with the NEW Skinny Numbers Stencilz.

The card from Nancy Thomas reminds me of a surprise party, waiting to jump out and yell “surprise!” The Shakey Numbers Stencilz help countdown your special message.

Finally, Julee Tilman. Julee uses the Succulent Stencilz to create a beautiful background for her 2020 celebration card. The oversized numbers act as a great accessory to the celebration bunny.

Is it just me, but I’m loving this sweet bun. This set is a great set for the New Year’s or for any special occasion. For a closer look at today’s cards, check out the following blogs and comment. You could win a $10 gift voucher. We’ll pick a winner each day this week from the comments on the blogs and post the winners here and on our Facebook page.

November Sneaky Peek #3

11 / 20 / 1911 / 20 / 19

Day 3 is here! It’s the last the last Sneaky Peek Week of the year and this time of year I tend to feel a little nostalgic and surround myself with people I love and really miss the people who are not around. So, this set celebrates them. This little set is called Hugs Needed. You can get the entire release on November 26. But, if you just can’t wait, the set is available now.

This sweet little card by Kerry Urbatch is just too adorable. This little boy and girl are two separate stamps, but work really well together. Kerry adds some doodles here and there to customize her card.

Beata June creates a scene on her card. It’s simple but, really tugs at the heartstrings.

Also, high on the adorable meter is this card from Melissa Chipperfield. She uses the Flutterby Die to create those gusty gusts.

Am I the only one that let out a great big sigh when I saw this pretty from Rebekah Weckerly? I love this little dog waiting for his person. The delicate clouds she created in the background just add to the whimsical quality of this card.

Finally, Julee Tilman gives us her spin on this set. The background is created using the NEW Pattern Builder and the Stripes and Plaid Stencils. You get 3 different sizes of them when you get the Pattern Builder that you can mix and match. A swatch of grass really brightens up the card and ties the whole thing together.

I hope you really liked the cards The Cat Pack created. Now, go to their blogs and let them know by commenting on their blogs. You could win a $10 gift voucher. We’ll pick a winner each day this week from the comments on the blogs and post the winners here and on our Facebook page.

November Sneaky Peek #2

11 / 19 / 1911 / 19 / 19

Today is Day 2 of the last Sneaky Peek Week of the year and today we are sneaking peeking a sweet little set called Hello Darlin’. You can get the entire release on November 26. But, if you just can’t wait, the set is available now.

This sweet little set is shown off to perfection by Melissa Chipperfield. She uses the Round Bubbles CutUps Die to create a yummy background for this darling Zebra.

Even flamingoes and ostriches need love. Brenda Nakandakari gives a vintage twist to her pretty card. Is it just me, or are you waiting for ukulele music to start?

I really, really dig Rebekah Weckerly’s card using the same stamps. Same stamps, totally different look, especially where googly eyes are concerned. Googly eyes add sooooo much.

I like this card by Julee Tilman a lottle. Julee uses the NEW Shakey Serif Alphabet Stencilz to create the “Hi” in her card. Since it’s a stencil, it’s a fantastic way to personalize your cards and projects with your own message for a great price. The stripes are custom too, made with our NEW Pattern Builder. You get 3 different sizes of stripes with the Pattern Builder to get you started. It’s a great way to create custom stripes and plaids. And those darling drops on either side of the sentiment? They were made with the NEW Hand drawn Scrolls Stencilz.

Here’s a little video that shows you how the Pattern Builder works.

I’m so excited to announce that The Cat’s Pajamas is sponsoring the Bella Crafts LIVE Event! Join us tomorrow at 10am pst on their Facebook page. It’s sure to be a lottle fun!

That’s it for today. Now, head on over to the The Cat Pack’s blogs, and then comment on their blogs. You could win a $10 gift voucher. We’ll pick a winner each day this week from the comments on the blogs and post the winners here and on our Facebook page.

November Sneaky Peek Day #1

11 / 18 / 19

I can’t believe that the year is almost over. Stores are ALREADY putting their Christmas goodies out in the stores and we are putting out Valentine’s Day 😉 Lucky for all of us, every day is the perfect day to tell the ones you care about that you love them.

Today is the very first day of the last Sneaky Peek Week of the year and today we are sneaking peeking a sweet little set called “Stuck on You” and the matching die. You can get the entire release on November 26.

I don’t know what it is that I just love about succulents. They are so cute, but prickly too. Hmm. Kinda sounds like me. This first card is by Wendy McGaffey and her card is just beautifully colored. This stamp set also has a matching die available, to make it easier to arrange your little succulents. Purchase the bundle and save.

I like the way that Cristena Bagne thinks. Her sweet little porcupine/hedgehog just needs some love.

Kerry Urbatch puts a festive twist on these sweet gift bags, stamping the cactus and doodling sweet colored lights on the cactus and at the top of the card. All it needs is the gift and it goes right up on the tree.

Here’s a look at the other. Love the touch of white for a spatter of “snow”. These sweet cards are perfect for those of us that don’t get snow for Christmas.

Deborah Anton creates easy little 3 x 3 cards. They may be small, but they’re mighty.

Don’t forget our TCP Tuesday Challenge. It’s all about November, December and January Holidays.

No one does unconventional colors like Nancy Thomas. Here, she colors up the Sketchy Santa and adds in a sweet Christmas Tree.

Some bunny just loves to celebrate. I feel a bit like celebrating after seeing this richly colored card by Beata June. She uses Santa is Coming.

Melissa Chipperfield choses what she colors carefully. And, by doing this, it just places importance on what is colored. LOVE this and this stamp set

Finally, Julee Tilman inks up Sketchy Santas and the beautiful Gingerbread house. There is just so much detail on this card, I just can’t help looking at them.

These cards are just too sweet, don’t you think?! I could only show a few of the pretties The Cat Pack created. Take a gander at the rest of The Cat Pack’s goodies, and then comment on each of the following blogs and you could win a $10 gift voucher. We’ll pick a winner each day this week from the comments on the blogs and post the winners here and on our Facebook page.

Cat Lover’s Blog Hop!

10 / 24 / 1910 / 24 / 19

It probably is a no brainer that The Cat’s Pajamas is a sponsor of the 2019 Cat Lover’s Hop. If you want to play along, just head over to HerPeacefulGarden.blogspot.com and find out how to play. Here is the main post.

One of my very favorite sets is the “What the Froth?” stamp set. And, it’s what we are giving away as a sponsor.

So, I thought I’d go into the archives and show you what you can do with this set. It not only features a couple of really awesome cats, but my favorite drink, at the moment. 😉

For this card, I thought it was perfect for a wobbler. Not familiar with a wobbler? Check out this how-to video.

Pretty simple, no? Will you create a wobbler for your entry into the Cat Lover’s Blog? Don’t forget to enter here. (Please use #2019CatLoversHop on social media!!) Hope to see you there!
