Hope You're Feline Better Soon card

I do love the Newton's Nook kittens and in all the situations they find themselves in.  This little kitten is feeling poorly and hopefully he can brighten someone's day that is not feeling up to par.  I tried a lot of different positions and layouts for this guy and finally settled on this design.

In My Defense Cat card

I can't begin to describe how well this phrase fits my kittens.  Today I found a craft straw hat with a chewed brim.  I cannot supervise them every second but what one brother doesn't think of, the other will.  This is a perfect card to send your favorite partner-in-crime to brighten their day.  I have a few that fit that description.

I'm Here For You Alzheimer's card

Alzheimer's is one of the charities that I do give money to because it did affect my family and I hope they find a cure for this terrible disease.  I've used this Newton's Nook stamp for breast cancer cards and heard on the news it was Alzheimer's & Brain Awareness month and decided to make this card yesterday. I even had some fancy embossed paper that I received as a gift from my neighbor that I used as the background.
