Cat Hop Giveaway Closed and October Scrap Backwards Project Share (Lots of Cat Layouts!)


Hello Lovelies!

Thanks so much to all of you who entered my giveaway and made Janis's SEVENTH Cat Lovers Hop such a success!

Please head on over and check Janis's winners post to see if you won a prize!

I left the giveaway open a couple of extra days because I simply wasn't feeling great, so any comments entered until now are counted.

I'm running late with some video editing so if Max and I don't do the draw tomorrow (Wednesday) my time then it will be Thursday.  We'll do a video draw as always. 

Now remember when I talked about the Scrap Backwards concept here?  It would have been "The Royal Cat" layout and video I posted.

Well these are the remaining layouts I made with the kit.  I'll include a short video of the wrap up and show what I had left, what I made etc.


Now here are the three cat layouts and journaling close ups.  I used the same three sketches that Kathy and Adam used during the month by Lisa Sikorski.

  

Culture Shock


 


Purrfect Combo



 

The 3AM Crazy


Thanks for stopping by and there will be a new May I Scraplift You video on my channel in the next 24 hours. (hint...DOUBLE CATS!)

In the meantime, Stay Safe and LOVE CATS!

Cat Lovers Hop Bonus Project/May I Scraplift You 30 Oct


 
GIVEAWAY NOW CLOSED!  THANKS FOR ENTERING!
 
Hi lovelies

May I Scraplift You is a weekly video series (on Saturdays) started by Crystal Barrett/Pineapple Papers.  For double cat content I scraplifted the lovely Moira's layout about HER cat Chopin.  He's even grey like Fitzy!  

Moira also takes part in May I Scraplift You.

Since this overlapped with the hop this year I decided to do a cat layout.  I also decided to use my "Scrap Backwards" kit for October.

 Here's my process video:


And below you can find photos:

2021 Cat Lovers Hop Rewind to Day 4

GIVEAWAY NOW CLOSED!  THANKS FOR ENTERING!

Hi Lovelies

So what happened on Day 4?

Well Wednesday marked one week since my last "top up" and at least a day or two over that first week results in the "medical" term Remicade Hangover. However the hop was looming so I pushed through with the help of extra steroids here and there.  The 'roids didn't help a lot, but I definitely felt my batteries draining fast.

The video I was supposed to shoot on Thursday just didn't happen.  "I'll do it Friday" she said.  "BAHAHAHAHAAAA" the weather said!

We often get "severe weather" warnings and they're usually rather anticlimactic.  My joints certainly felt way way waaay more achy on Thursday night and the strong winds didn't sound any worse than before, but when I opened the curtains I was greeted to this view (looking to the left of my driveway).  It actually was rather minor compared to other places in the neighbourhood which had trees down on the road and other suburbs had much more dramatic damage.

There was to be no video shooting on Friday either.  The sound of chainsaws punctuated by emergency sirens went on aaaall day.  

If the sound of icky birds is picked up by the camera, can you imagine that as background noise?

Wasn't really an issue since we had NO POWER from 8am.  At one point the estimate was TWELVE HOURS!  It ended up restored sometime late afternoon much to my relief, but mentally and physically I was so drained I didn't even scrapbook without the pressure of filming.


 

On Saturday I finally felt as though I was clawing (see what I did there?๐Ÿ˜น) my way back.

I managed one layout which I'll share in the coming days.  Today is Sunday and after a Zoom meeting I'm finally going to get my video on for "May I Scraplift You" (fashionably late as usual ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿผ‍♀️)

I bet you thought I was going to leave you without any Cat Content (besides my Hello Kitty brooch in the first pic ๐Ÿ˜ป)

I figured soaking my paintbrush in a cup on the microwave would be out of everyone's way.  I didn't account for the indomitable Fitz. He jumps up to drink from the filtered water tap to the right of the microwave (hoomin operated of course).

But why drink filtered water when you can drink purple sparkly water? ๐Ÿ˜น๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿผ‍♀️๐Ÿคท๐Ÿผ‍♀️

2021 Cat Hop Day 6

 

GIVEAWAY NOW CLOSED!  THANKS FOR ENTERING!

Hello Lovelies!

Today is another make for Janis using a digital image by Ike's Art who has been sponsoring the Cat Hop for all 7 years!  Thank You Ike!

This year Janis will feature one of six images each day and today it's this adorable little guy peeking over a table or something.

I am much happier with my colouring on this card!  I wasn't putting myself down with the previous one.  It's just that part of my usual process is to conduct what I call a "post mortem" afterwards and assess what I liked and what I might do differently.  

I keep it real and find it helpful when so much online is sanitized.  

Working on shading and a realistic light source is something I'm really trying to improve on.  I can easily tell when it isn't "right", but not quite so easy to tell how to get it right!

This little ginger cutie isn't totally perfect in that regard either, but at least the colour blends I was pleased with.  I have ALWAYS wanted a ginger cat!

I pulled out a cat themed 6x6 pad I got last year and used some papers to make an easel fold card.  The notebook punched border was an afterthought and has more contrast IRL.

I performed some stamp surgery to remove the word "favorite" from the phrase since I prefer to avoid American spelling if possible (MFT Cat-Astrophe) and that was basically it!

Rather simple for me actually!

2021 Cat Hop Day 5



GIVEAWAY NOW CLOSED!  THANKS FOR ENTERING!

Hi Lovelies

I honestly meant to do a Day 4 post.  It's a long story which I will explain soon.  Which brings me to my next point - you may have noticed my giveaway is open a full week after the hop ends.  I do try to keep adding extra posts and projects during this time so to give yourself the most chances to enter please keep checking back here.

I also put a list of links to any of my blog posts at the bottom (just scroll down all the way) which give you entries so you can check you've seen them all.

Today is another make for Janis again using a digital image by Ike's Art who has been sponsoring the Cat Hop for all 7 years!  Thank You Ike!

This year Janis will feature one of six images each day and today it's this sleepy looking kitty on his comfy cushion.

Ike had put some shading onto the cat and a bit on the cushion, so I didn't have to think too hard about where to put shadows.  I just rolled with it!  I went with grey since it would lend itself to such shading and of course my Fitzy is (mostly) grey!

My friend Sara Scraps has a Facebook group called Rediscover Your Stash.  Each month there is a product focus and for October is washi tape.  I knew I was going to use washi on this card.  And what better time to use all my cat washi!

The day I finished this I couldn't seem to find a decent spot for photography - too dark or too light, but you get the idea!

2021 Cat Hop Day 3



GIVEAWAY NOW CLOSED!  THANKS FOR ENTERING!

Hi Lovelies

So it's probably time I shared a project with you created specifically for the hop, right? 

This one uses a digital image by Ike's Art who has been sponsoring the Cat Hop for all 7 years!  Thank You Ike!

This year Janis will feature one of six images each day and today it's the Cheshire Cat.  I LOVE Alice in Wonderland so I was excited to work with it, although having not picked up a marker in probably a year I was very much out of practice.

I felt I couldn't get the colour blends I really wanted and that does come down to having more colours in my collection, but what really bothered me was my light source an shading.  Colouring stripes and getting that right is way harder than it looks!  In hindsight I would have used a greylead pencil and shaded an image as a guide as to where I wanted the shadows and highlights.

I pulled out what little I could find of the two Alice themed collections by Echo Park and did the best I could.  Of course I found the rest later after I was done. ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿผ‍♀️๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿผ‍♀️๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿผ‍♀️

2021 Cat Hop Day 2

 

GIVEAWAY NOW CLOSED!  THANKS FOR ENTERING!

Hello Lovelies!

This one will be super short in an attempt to get in sync with Janis's timing.  I wasn't planning to make anything today either after surveying my craftermath in dismay. 

I mean it's always pretty bad, but today it's even worse after several days of frenetic colouring (and I still can't find my BV00 marker).

You may find I go back later and change the date/time the posts are published, but your comments are safe and I'll add a list of all my posts at the end so you can check you've seen them all. 

That being said, I do want to get my make on.  I will have a "May I Scraplift You" process video on Saturday (Cat themed of course) but 27 October is Black Cat Day (as distinct from Black Cat Appreciation Day in August).

Seems like a good time to make something inspired by our very own dearly departed house panther.  My thumbnail in blogger was created for me and inspired by him.  The one and only Fossett (known as Fossy). 

I have some adulting to get out the way, but I also have some scrappy things to finish before the end of the month.  ๐Ÿค” Tough choice! 

It means I have to print photos and printing photos means I have help whether I want it or not.  See what I mean?

Stick It Down Anniversary Hop

Hello lovelies!

 

It's Stick celebratory instagram hop this weekend. What are we celebrating? Our SID anniversary! 


Our DT has chosen ANY of our past sketches to use as inspiration. You have all weekend to hop along. Be sure to like & comment on each "stop" along the way. When you're done, the final stop is https://www.instagram.com/stickitdown where you'll post that you have completed the hop. 

You must finish the hop by 11:59PM EST on Sunday June 27. When you complete the hop, you're entered to win a grand prize sponsored by https://www.instagram.com/MyLittleScrapbookStore!

 

 

Here is the order of the hop:

@stickitdown 

YOU ARE HERE!!  

@pinkcraftymama 

YOU ARE HERE!!

@lempapercrafting

@immayayang

@mandi_creating 

@Lissa_hope

@ali_reads

@bethanyroisland

@antsheartseggy

@stickitdown

And here's my project along with still pics.  

I chose to do a layout from Max's grade 6 graduation dinner.  It was a milestone for us and I loved all the work the school did to make it a special event.  

We had to pick any past SID sketch I used this sketch from Feb 2014!


 Title

I loved being able to use one of those large chipboard pieces and in particular a word/phrase.  I like coming u with my own titles so I rarely use them, but it seemed to work with how I felt on the night (along with some sadness too)

 

Journaling

Embellies

I went to town with the school colours for his graduation pics.  Probably because I went to town getting us to wear them too (as best I could without using bodily hard!)




Oh Happy Heart


Thanks for stopping by!  Please check out all the other girls' projects!

Love, and Stick It Down!
