My last child just left to go back to college.   This week went by so fast,  I really enjoyed having all 4 kids back home.  I know they will be back in 3 weeks but I still miss them.....

My kids  may have left , but  I still have my sons cat, and she is constantly getting into some type of trouble, especially now since no one is paying attention to her.  I thought my son might enjoy this card, since in his eyes his cat is perfect......

I'm really behind on my Christmas cards.  Since I spent all day yesterday and today cleaning, (not my favorite) I thought I'd let myself play a little before I tackle the kitchen floor.  

Non traditional colors and masculine,  I love it.  Digi is from Magic in the Air, Paper Cupcakes,  thanks Nina.  colored with copics.  I pieced the background with scraps,  stickles,  all else from stash.
