Sunny Peeks!

More peeks? Yup!!  YEA! The Cat's Pajamas is gearing up for a bit release next week.  The official peeks started yesterday and you should check Alma's blog daily for a list of what Cat Packers are posting each day.  Yesterday was TCP Tuesday and Jen is the Hostess with the Mostess.  Her challenge is to use ribbon in a non-traditional way - i.e. no bows!

I used some fun gathered gingham ribbon to make a "sun" for my card.  It was super easy to add some adhesive to the back of my button and add the ribbon.  I added some yellow pearls around the button and then a bit of Divine Twine to finish it off.  And how about this cute new set, Spring Rain!

I took the chance to a bit of paper piecing for the umbrella, raincoat and matching boots.  The dp is Love Me Do from My Mind's Eye. I just love the sentiments with these new sets - and this one is perfect!!  "The Sun'll Come Out Tomorrow" - I know, you'll be singing that all day now won't ya?! :) 

I hope you get a chance to play along with the challenge - you could be our next Swanky Stamper!  Oh, and the release kicks off with a big party in the TCP Forum at Splitcoaststampers on Monday night, January 17.  I hope you'll join us, it moves pretty quickly and we have tons of fun!
