Fish Bait, Tackle Box card




A slow day at fishing can easily lead to a nap.  I never did much shore fishing so there was no lawn chair for me to fish from.  This guy certainly seems to be enjoying it though.  I'm not sure why but I had to give him yellow suspenders.

Cat Trio Birthday card



My cats certainly didn't make me a birthday cake but I'm ok with that.  I've seen the mess they make with impromptu wrestling matches and wouldn't want my kitchen to experience a mess of felines trying to cook.  I've had the candle die forever and finally got an opportunity to use it to decorate this card.
