It's a very special TCP Tuesday this week friends!  Our 200th TCP Tuesday Challenge - WOW!! So we are celebrating in true Cat's Pajamas fashion, with a FREE Giveaway.

Leigh is our Hostess With the Mostest this week and gave us another fabby sketch!!  I just am amazed at all the wonderful cards The Cat Packers made using this sketch! I was a little scared to start but once I did I completely fell in love with this sketch! There are so many possibilities!!


You can see that I used a couple of different CutUps dies, Sunflower RosetteStamp Trio and Inside Pinking and a couple different sets, Nesting and Love Letters  from The Cat's Pajamas.  It was lots of fun mixing and matching colors, stamps and papers!


I scored the patterned paper to give some definition to each of the squares.


The pretty Seam Binding was dyed using glimmer mist - I love the look of that!

Remember to visit the rest of the Cat Packers' (listed over there on my right sidebar) TCP Tuesday Challenge Posts for a chance to win the entire next release - and trust me, you will really, really want this entire release!!!
