Hello--
I am still deep into the reading binge. The weather has been cooler and perfect for reading all afternoon long. Today though, I am watching college football and playing along in a few challenges. Instead of separate posts, I'm going to put them all into one.
First up - Freshly Made Sketches...I took a bit of a liberty on this one, but I think it should work.
I needed a get well/feeling better/recovery wishes card for a man. This plaid paper from Stampin Up set the tone for the colors and the sketch was the perfect design. The image and sentiment are from WPlus9.Next up three challenges - CAS on Friday Numbers, Seize the Birthday Balloons, and Watercooler Wednesday Occasions.
The numbers are from Hero Arts, the Balloons from MFT and the sentiment is from Sugar Peas.
And my last card for the afternoon is for Color Hues.
I pulled out an older Newton's Nook stamp for this challenge. The pile of blankets looked perfect for soom Copic coloring. The swoosh of stars embossed in silver is from a Stampin Up set and was laying unused in my bin. I think it goes well with the sentiment and adds a nice bit of neutral bling.

Three darling cards, Cat! Of course my fave is the one featuring a kitty and I love the pile of blankets for naptime!! You've been busy!!
What fun cards. That little Get Well Mouse is so cute and being a cat lover I really enjoyed your cat card.
What a fun trio of cards! Your little mouse is so sweet for a get well card. Love the clean design of your balloons card. And what a great use of navy and turquoise for Newton's pile of blankets! Thanks for joining us at Seize the Birthday and Color Hues!
Well, I enjoyed each of these cards and reading your post. Wise to put them all together and save yourself some time. Kudos to you for keeping track of challenges you want to play in. I have to say I have a hard time following too many. These are all so cute! Love your stamps, Cat.
3 great cards Cat! Love the kitty snoozing on the blankets, the stars are a great touch! Love the crisp look of your red white and blue balloon card too, thankyou for playing along at Seize the Birthday, Cathy x
Your cards are all wonderful, Cat! LOVE the colors in the 3rd card -- awesomeness
Whatcha reading? I am a big reader too. Love your "numbers" card! Thanks for joining us at CAS on Friday!
What a great set of cards, Cat!! I love them all! Your number birthday card is so eye-catching with a clever design and wonderful colour combinations! Thanks for joining us at the Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week. Take care:)
You were busy having lots of fun! Three beautiful cards. Of course I love the Newton cat!
Cute - check [or plaid in this case]
Graphic - and who doesn't love red, white, blue, and balloons?
Fabulous - the snippet works so perfectly to indicate his 'dreams!'
A day well played, my friend!

I love them all Cat, but the kitty sleeping on the navy & turquoise blankets is so gosh dang CUTE that it totally makes me smile! Love it!! :0)
a great trio of cards. I love the plaid on your first card, the wonderful contrast with the red and blue on your second and the wonderful swoosh of stars on your third. You re right about that xx
Well Cat, This is a great set of cards! That poor bunny with his booboo head and foot is darling, your balloons are so vibrant against the blue card base and your little kitty resting on the mountain of blankets is darling too! Those blankets look great in our colors at Color Hues! Happy to have you in both galleries...Seize the Birthday and Color Hues too.
Fabulous color and pattern combinations on these cards!
What a wonderful crafty threefer afternoon you had, Cat! I love all three takes on the challenges ... all winners in my book! Take care and happy reading! Hugs, Darnell
Great cards, Cat! I love the bold paid background with the sweet get well message on the first one. It's always a treat to see your designs in the FMS gallery!
Well--all that reading hasn't hurt your mojo for cardmaking, Cat! Terrific cards--really love the one with balloons! We're happy the Pac12 is actually going to play some games. Just hope the Covid numbers decrease. Pretty discouraging how they're rising--obviously because of people ignoring the recommendations from the scientists who know what they're talking about! Oops--better stop there--not the place to rant & rave which is how the world is making me feel most of the time these days--unfortunately.
Wonderful cards! I love your choice of images and colours. Thanks for joining us at FMS this week!
What a fabulous collection, Cat ... the first two are wonderfully masculine with a touch of fun ... and I love Newton's stack of cosy blue and turquoise blankets ... the stars are perfect with that sentiment! Hugs, Anita :)
Fun ballon card for our 200th challenge! I love the numbers background (I think I may have that stamp ... somewhere 🤣)
Thanks for playing along at Seize The Birthday!
Cat, first I have some catching up to do, sorry I have not been visiting lately. I think you coloured your cushions just perfectly, I love the shades of blue that you used so much. This is such a sweet sweet card!
...Hmm must be too early for me, I thought the other cards were another post! Okay your get well card in the brown plaid is so sweet, a definite perk up and the fun balloons always a great birthday card design!!
