Birthday Card for Husband Using CTMH Hawthorn Cardmaking Stamp & Thin cuts

Hello Friends!  I can't believe it is November 4th already.  Time flies when you are having fun; or even if you aren't.  LOL!  I hope everyone is doing well.  It will soon be Thanksgiving; which is a time to be grateful for everything and everyone.  

I tried to get this card done earlier; but I actually got it created on my husband's birthday.  His birthday is Halloween; so we went out for an early dinner and then he handed out candy to the kids.  He loves to hand out candy and see the kids all dressed up.

My husband always tells me to forget about making him a card; but how can I not make him a card when that is what I do to show love for my friends and family.  I think he enjoys them; even if he tells me not to.  I didn't use the thin cuts on this card; but it is part of the set.  It is a nice set for creating cards for men.

Christmas card Using Conie Fong "Purrfect Kitties" with CTMH Holly Jolly Paper and Mix In Paper

Hello Friends!  We are having very strange weather in Southern CA.  It is very cool at night and hot during the day with very little humidity; which is why we are having so many fires.  I heard it snowed in a few areas; which caused flights to be delayed or canceled.  I know it is November now; but I wonder if it is going to cool down during the day soon.  It will be 88 today.  

I created this card last month; but haven't had time to post it yet.  I am in love with the last two new images that Conie Fong has created and this one is the latest one.  I love cats and kittens; and I love these images.  I hope you enjoy another Christmas card.  Love this sentiment that comes with both of the images.  This one is Conie Fong "Purrfect Kitties".  Click on the name for the link to purchase this cutie.  It comes with and without the lights; so you can use it for birthdays, etc.
