Squigglefly Challenge time

Happy Monday everyone!  So one thing I do each week is the challenge on Squigglefly.  I am captian of the Holley Hobbyists, but this week, the challenge is being run by Rhonda's Rowdy Rascals.  I am playing along though as the challenge is to follow a recipe--use a circle, a flower, and a button.  Seemed pretty straight forward!  I had this fun guy called Bandit's Mischeavious Smile from Cheryl Alger. I also just got my hands on some 6x6" embossing folders from Crafter's Companion!
I added this fun sticker saying "Happiness" because I don't know what Bandit is up to, but he's certainly up to something.....drop by the Squigglefly Challenge blog and join in on the fun, you can use any stamp, but if you use a Squigglefly stamp, you are eligible for a prize (from Squigglefly--by playing on Squigglefly's challenge blog), even if you use a freebie stamp (CLICK HERE TO GET)

As for my blog--we will have a drawing here too, just leave a fun comment today, what's your favorite pet? it's ok if you just want a pet rock!  I get it, not all people have lots of pets.  me, I have had my share of pets over the years.  Looking at Bandit of course, makes me think of my cat, Machi, that cat is of course and will always be my husband's cat first.  She may love on me when he is away, but as soon as she hears the door, she jumps up and moves with that guilty look on her face!  HA!

Cute card - love that embossing folder! I'm a dog person; we had a cat in college that decided to sleep on my bed, even though it was my 2 roommates that wanted a cat, not me!

This cat is definitely up to no good. LOL Very cute image. We have a Shih-Poo, Jax, that is 15 months, & a ShihTzu, Neda, that is 9 months. They are both wonderful boys & we love them. We hate to go anywhere without them & they love to travel. :)

That is one crafty looking cat!! LOL I love the 6 x 6 embossing folders from Crafters companion, the 8 x 8 are terrific also.

I have a refuge dog called Jasper who is very nervous, but adorable, and a stray cat called Oscar who we found as a kitten with a broken tail which had 2 be amputated- it hasn't stopped him getting into mischief!!
Hugs,

That cheeky grin is adorable. My favourite pet would have to be one of God's most magnificant creations- the horse.

Phi said...

Me, my pet of choice are my plants. They look good, smell nice and dont talk back. My dear husband on the other hand had to have some kind of birds. Currently he's into parrots. We have 5 at the moment. 2 adults, 3 babies. Adults hark like crows and says somethings so fast and in robotic tones I cant even understand them. The babies, one is learning how to say "hello, whatcha doing", the other two are learning to hark like crows. What's a girl to do? So much for smell nice and dont talk back.

Adorable card Holley. I love the embossed corners. Bandit does look pretty happy doesn't he? At least your cat has the decency to look guilty for leaving your lap!

So fun! Such a cute image! I like the colors you used and that look on his face is precious.


I can't have indoor pets as my husband is allergic, so my pets are my cows. They all have names and the funniest personalities. They love hot dog buns and most will let me pet them as long as I have food of they think I have some. They run when they see me coming and a running cow is a sight to see.

ShersL84bed said...

Another cute card. My favorite animal is a dog. I love to have my little dog by my side.
