I love how you have used cards to make new cards but to look like scrapbook pages. Such a brilliant idea. They are all beautiful but my favourite is the cat drinking from the tea cup.

PICTURE IT PERFECT BLOG HOP 28TH JAN 2012

Hello everyone and welcome to the "Picture it Perfect" blog hop 28th Jan hosted by myself and Doris

Doris had the idea of having a hop on the theme of incorportating a photograph or magazine picture or postcard into an actual card creation when she saw something that i had posted on a previous hop we decided to join forces and host this hop together.

If you have arrived here in blogger land then you are in the right place to start the hop.

Here are my creations for today i got inspiration from a calendar i bought for a christmas present  of "Cats In Hats" !!  So i googled cats in hats to come up with some fabby Cat in hat images to create my projects  - hope you like them

I wish my cats would pose like these ones so i could get some pics of them in silly hats or dress them up - then again Jim would kill me !! But it would be fun.

My last creation is with using an image from an old birthday card that i have then jazzed up to create a new recycled card. I think this is such a cute image and yep its another cat!!

I will be offering blog candy to one lucky hopper with the best comments on my blog - the conditions for the prize are to be a follower on all the line up blogs and to leave comments on everyones creations - the draw will take place in 2 days time

Now please hop on over to my co-hosts Doris's blog for her creations. Here is the full line up just in case you get lost along the way.
