Wow, September has been a whirlwind.... This is the height of hurricane season for us here in Florida, after years of dodging the bullet we were hit head on by Irma. The eye passed over us about 9 pm Sunday night. I have never experience a cat 3 hurricane and am not in any hurry to experience another one. Thankfully we had plenty of time to get our shutters up and prepare as best we could. We were very lucky, we have no major damage, all of our structures are still standing no flooding. We lost the most of the on our pool enclose. A small wooden fence blown down, most of our fruit trees were uprooted and some shingles off our roof. We did have to go without power for more than a week but all in all we are no worse for wear. My chickens all survived and their coop withstood the winds. We are almost back to normal (still a little cleaning up to do). But I truly am happy to have time to get back to sharing with all of you.

Spooky Cat Share
I wanted to share one of the cards we did at our Wednesday Get together at Seminole Gardens. The ladies love love love meeting to learn new techniques, get hands on with new products and have fun with friends old and new. This class is open to the public, if you are in the area and interested, contact me for more information.
Spooky Cat........
This card was done using products from the Spooky Night Suite (page 52 - 53) in the holiday Catalog. We used Pumpkin Pie Card stock for the base. Added a little dimension by sponging the front with the Brick mask from the Pattern Party Decorative Masks and Pumpkin Pie Ink. We also used Spooky Night Designer Series paper and a touch of Basic Black & Very Vanilla. I must say I used a tad of our Black Glimmer Paper which is retired (my bad). The Cat Punch (which is bundled with Spooky Cat stamp set) and the Decorative Ribbon Border Punch was used to add a bit of interest. We also used Layering Ovals Framelits to make the frame. I added a few our our new Black Rhinestone Jewels. It was a fun simple card and the lay out could be used for a variety of card types.
Well that's all for now, have a great weekend and remember to be kind, you never know what burdens someone else may be carrying and a smile and kind word can go a long way .
Hugs
