  3. Nice job - as always, Kath. I love the watercolored monster, the "white grunge" (nice touch!!)- and I love the linen thread, burlap and glimmer paper all together on one card. So nice - and it all works together.

  7. Kath, I'm so happy you're part of the blog hop. I love your creations.

    I found the tag you CASEed from page 17 but prefer yours with the heart. It adds a special touch, especially with Valentine's around the corner. The Glimmer heart, by the way---did you colour the Silver Glimmer paper?

    Doesn't that grunge look perfect with your hearts? Funny, when I first saw the grunge stamp set I didn't want it but since I bought it some months ago, I've used it a lot and love it. Weird how that happens.

    Oh my! A pink, polka-dot monster! That just makes me smile! Love it!

  9. Goodness, Kath, I'm impressed you accomplished much of anything while recovering from that injury! Every one of your projects is wonderful in its own way...from the yummy first one to the funny last. Thank you for sharing your talent.

  10. Yikes Kath...you never said a word about your shoulder when we talked. Get healed soon and thanks for working so hard to be a part of the hop! Your hop entries are marvelous and have found their way into my CASE file.
    I'm torn between your first and second as my fav. I'm afraid even cute monster maniacs scare me. {grin}
    Hugs to one of my favorite "grunge" artists. You're gorgeous.

  12. Owie on the shoulder photo! Which makes your cards all that much more awesome. I've been wondering what to do with the Gorgeous Grunge set, and your card really inspired me to get it out and work with it more!
