Janis Woolbright aveva un grande senso dell’humour e i suoi post, specialmente quelli dei Cat Lovers Hops, iniziavano spesso con un meme, a tema gatti ovviamente!
Con il Cat Lovers Christmas Kickstart Challenge, Jo sta rendendo onore alla memoria di Janis con l'aiuto delle Helpful Hoppers che già aiutarono Janis nel suo ultimo, indimenticabile Cat Lovers Hop. Jo al giorno #4 chiede ai partecipanti di condividere alcune immagini divertenti o cartoons sui gatti, così come faceva Janis. Io ho selezionato alcuni meme sul blog di Janis (che è ancora online grazie alla sua meravigliosa famiglia), e ve li ripropongo, così come ha fatto Kitty in questo post. Il primo è forse un po' più serio, ma trovo che si addica a Janis. A me piace molto:
Le dimostrazioni d'affetto dei gatti spesso ci sorprendono... LOL 😱😂
...E per finire non poteva certo mancare il famigerato albero di Natale! (Io ci ho rinunciato da innumerevoli anni, non mi diverto più 😸😸😸)
Al giorno #7 del Cat Lovers Christmas Challenge il gioco (n° 2#) proposto da Jo è quello di raccontare le birichinate commesse dai nostri gatti con l'albero di Natale. Per quello che mi riguarda, tutti i miei gatti hanno sempre considerato l'albero di Natale come un parco giochi, esattamente come illustra benissimo il meme qui sopra. 😂 L'albero (artificiale, non amo vedere gli alberi tagliati, e quelli in vaso comprati al vivaio a me sono sempre morti dopo Natale!) è sempre stato scalato dai gattini con il risultato di cadere a terra, con palline rotte annesse... Le "code di volpe" e i nastri venivano tirati (e di nuovo l'albero si rovesciava), le palline fatte rotolare per la casa fino sotto ai mobili, i rami tirati con le zampe e con i denti, scalciati con le zampe posteriori come se fossero prede... Maggiore il divertimento dei miei gatti, maggiori i danni! E avendo sempre avuto parecchi gatti contemporaneamente, giocavano insieme moltiplicando e velocizzando la catastrofe! Ho resistito davvero poco ai disastri e ho abbandonato l'idea di addobbare l'albero moltissimi anni fa. Ora faccio soltanto il presepe, che viene fortunatamente ignorato!
Se siete arrivate fino a qui, ecco i dettagli della mia seconda card per il
Il timbro digitale è by Dearie Dolls, l'ho colorato con gli alcohol markers e Nuvo Glitter Drops oro per le palline. Ho aggiunto alcuni puntini con la penna gel bianca. I due gattini in basso sono fustellate trovate già pronte in uno dei miei raccoglitori di recupero snippets, li ho solo colorati di grigio con un marker. Il sentiment "Buon Natale" l'ho generato al computer.

I haven't seen a Dearie Dolls image in quite some time, so using this one brought back some fun memories of days gone by. I love the playful image with the cats making a playground of the tree, it's just typical of cat behaviors LOL Love that decorative border on the top too, and a great card for the challenge. Those memes are really amusing and made me smile too. Have a great week ahead and I'm sending big hugs your way!
RispondiEliminaAlice cute and beautiful card

How cool is your 'bended' tree! It definitely matches talking about festive naughty kitties! How fun they are playing and literally destroying the tree. Your card is adorable, just love the 'shock' on the baby's face with the 'oh noooo'. Fabulous colour and totally a giggle!
RispondiEliminaCiao, Alice! I love your card so much - what a fun scene, chaotic, but fun. Thanks so much for playing along with us as we remember dear Janis together, Jo x
RispondiEliminaWonderful card and challenge.
RispondiEliminaOh what a fun post, Alice! I so enjoyed reading about your kitties and the antics they would do during Christmas. We only had a tree after our kitties got old enough to lose interest in such things, but now with our new playful girl, I don't think we'll take a chance. I gave up on having a real tree a long time ago due to allergies.
RispondiEliminaLOL, I couldn't help but giggle at the memes you shared! So funny and so true! I love your Dearie Dolls card, and it's so purr-fect to demonstrate kitties' naughty behaviours! Your colouring is beautiful, and the image makes me smile! I love how you added the die-cut kitties!
As for the glitter foam, I don't use the foam much any more but when I did, it cut beautifully with my cutter/trimmer. I should note that I cannot cut a straight line at all, so I must use a cutter for everything!
I am so happy to see another card from you at Christmas Kickstart's Cat Lovers Christmas Challenge! I hope you will have time to come back with more cards! Sending love, hugs, and all my bes!
Ha ha, thanks for the laugh Alice. So lovely to hear all the cat antics and your card is perfect. Things on my cards end up wonky all the time and I try very hard not to mind, but of course I do. the harder I try to keep things straight, the more likely they are to be wonky! xx
RispondiEliminaGreat fun card and image --love all the cat memes too-must admit our cats have never bothered with the tree although one of my Daughters cats used to run up it lol.

I used a Dearie Dolls image on one of my cards too. She was so generous and had so many adorable images just like the one you used. Thanks for sharing the cat memes and your stories. Janis' would have loved them. Helpful Hopper Suzanne
RispondiEliminaOh Alice this is absolutely fantastic what a brilliant fun festive creation superb work

Another fabulous card in Janis’ memory. Fun scene and beautifully coloured.
RispondiEliminaThe memes are hilarious! I only participated in Janis’ last CLH, so have not seen these memes before. Thanks for sharing. Hooke to play along.
Beautiful Christmas card Alice well done. And I did have a chuckle at your cat funnies too.
RispondiEliminaThanks for sharing, and may God bless you and keep you and all whom you love safe and well.

What a fun post to start my day with! And your card is awesome too, love the image and the festive borders. Thanks so much for joining us at the Paper Funday Challenge!
RispondiEliminaAn awesome creation Alice. Lovely stories of your cats antics. I miss my cats, I am not allowed a cat in my apartment, it wouldn't be fair on them anyway with no garden to play and stalk in.

Alice, I love your fun scene with the naughty kitties destroying the tree and decorations and the child's startled expression (and the kitty on top of the bended tree). Lovely colouring and a great design.
RispondiEliminaThank you, once more, for joining the special Cat Lovers Christmas Challenge in memory of our dear friend, Janis Woolbright. x
I love all your fun memes ... you're right about the one being 100% Janis. She was a Christian first and always thought of others first. She always reminded me of my sister who is the same way! Your card is so delightful and a wonderful design. I thought fur sure the sentiment was going to be something like 'naughty Christmas!' LOL
RispondiEliminaA beautiful card full of colour and gorgeous design.. loving this ♥
RispondiEliminaA grin grin from the funnies, makes one's day in this time of sadness x
Oh, Alice what a fun card you created with that cute and fun image and I had to LOL at those fun memes! I love cat memes!!
