Cats Galore!

I wake up to a dismal damp day. The living room is so dark I could light a candle. I decide it is a day for crafting. A day for making tags. A day for making cats. I started off by making some sugared almond coloured lady cats with organza ties.
I then made a lilac cat and a lemon cat and gave them white bows for a feminine touch.

Here are my lady cats all grouped together. Their hand drawn faces are all slightly different.

In need of some bolder colours I made two manly cats, dressed them in paisley paper and gave them twine ties. I think they look very handsome in their finery.

Here are all the cats grouped together. Which one is your favourite?

This one is my favourite (sometimes). A very naughty ginger boy!

  1. Such fine cats - they're lovely. I musn't say this too loudly as I have two lovely girl cats, but I think those paisley cats are my favourites!

  7. Hi Simone, I came over from Debbie who showed us the lovely magazine and other beautiful items she won. I love your blog, I've been reading and have lots more to read so will be back soon. I love the kitties. They are so precious. I have two kitties Anna and Bailey so I really can't pick a fav or they will be really upset with me...but I love the pink one and the yellow..please don't tell them.

  8. Hello Simone...
    I was reading the comment that I posted before...
    What I meant to say is:
    - I so LOVE, ALL your cat tags!
    My little ones are ALWAYS disturbing me, when I`m on the computer, and sometimes I realize that I don`t even finish some of my comments... and I just send them off.
    In your case I forgot one word, so my comment didn`t made sense at all!
    I`m sorry for that, by the way...
    please do let me know, when you will be reciveing your little gifts from me.
    Hope you like them!
    Kisses Kisses
