Abby's inspiration for this blog hop was her dear furry friend (seen in the picture), as well as all of those ASPCA commercials that make us all reach for the box of tissues.
April is Prevention of Cruelty to Animals month - help us raise some awareness and hop along!

Shelter animals have a place near and dear to my heart. My lovely pal, Spock, came to us from a local no-kill shelter: Saving Paws. He is the most lovable cat, great with children, and many of our friends and family have tried to steal him and/or clone him at times. We could not have been more blessed with such a wonderful furry friend. The amazing part is 1.) I convinced my husband to get a cat and 2.) I'm actually more of a "dog person". But I seriously love this cat. He's great, our "Spock-kitty", as my children lovingly refer to him.
Using orange to represent the ASPCA colors and awareness this month was a bit of a challenge for me! I definitely do NOT gravitate towards that color. Thanks for this challenge, Abby!
I chose the Max & Whiskers line by Basic Grey and the "Life is not Perfect" stamp set by Hero Arts as my jumping off points and just ran with it. I hope you enjoy my creations!
What?!?! You've made it this far, there had better be more blog candy, right?? :)
How about that lovely stamp set I used in these cards ----
