New SU Goodies

I wanted to share a picture with you of my new "apprentice" - her name is Maude (she's Harold's sister).  She has always had to be in the room with me, especially if I'm in there alone.  She is not a small cat and she somehow manages to fit her girth on the arm of my chair (which is only about 2 inches wide).  She has to balance herself by leaning on me and while I appreciate the warmth on cold days, it does somewhat limit my movements.  When I got sick, she basically glued herself to me.  She had to be touching me at all times.  You need to understand, this is a cat who hisses and growls at everyone (including me sometimes) and she just mellowed right out when I was not feeling well.  I came into the room the other day and found her like this:

She's that gray ball of fur in the corner next to the keyboard.  

This is the first time she's ever taken over the desk too!  Harold is doing much better and is so much happier without that nasty collar.  He visits the craft cave too but doesn't really hang out there very much.

Stampin' Up! has a new Occasions Mini catalog and an upcoming Sale-A-Bration catalog out right now.  Next week I will be heading to San Antonio for this year's Leadership Conference and they are holding a contest.  So .... I decided to make some cards to enter into the contest!  I am not quite up to making swaps, but a couple of contest cards should be no problem, right?  Here are a couple of possibles, please let me know what you think of them okay?

Funny thing I found in my junkmail folder on New Year's day:

Don't really think it takes a psychic to be able to do this do you?

Thanks for visiting!
