February TN Time with Lisa & Lori

Happy Monday!  I hope your year is off to a good start...didn't have time to join us last month?  No worries today we are launching another sketch and challenge!  So let's get this party started!

HERE IS HOW OUR CHALLENGE WORKS: This is a monthly challenge that launches on the 10th of each month  You will have until the 9th at midnight CST to link up your entries. If you complete my sketch challenge link your TN, bullet journal or planner spread below. If you combined my challenge with Lori's challenge link up your spread here on my blog AND on Lori's Blog (My Happy Life).  You will then have a chance to win my prize as well as Lori's prize!  That's a chance to win TWO times with ONE layout! WOW!
Now for my challenge!! Here is this month's sketch:

Now for Lori's challenge:
For Lori's challenge use 3 of the following items on your spread: 
The color pink
The color red
hearts
flowers
tag(s)
label(s)
gold
striped pattern paper
Now here is my layout based on the sketch & Lori's challenge:
 Supplies Used: Patterned Paper: CTMH Heart Happy, Dear Lizzy She's Magic, Pink Paislee Lucky Us, My Mind's Eye So Sophie; cardstock: Stampin' Up Black; ephemera: Pink Fresh My Favorite Story & Dear Lizzy She's Magic; enamel dots: Recollections; puffy stickers: Vicki Boutin & Elle's Studio; flower: Pretty Little Studios; word strip: Simple Stories; date stamp: Heidi Swapp; ink: Memento Black Tuxedo; letter stickers: Making Memories; die: CTMH heart; washi tape: Crate Paper

A few close ups:
 As you can see I was an over achiever and used EVERYTHING on the list for Lori's challenge!  It was super easy to do and a fun challenge for myself!  I used pink and red both on the layout, I used the black gingham washi tape.  I used hearts in my paper, my die cut and a puffy heart sticker.  I used gold by adding gold enamel dots.  I also used a label and tag from the Dear Lizzy She's Magic ephemera pack I got on sale last year. My flower is from Pretty Little Studios and it is so pretty I have been hoarding it lol!  I used a few striped pieces of paper to finish off the challenge!
I had fun documenting this fun memory my niece and I had from this past December.  As a birthday present to her instead of toys, clothes or other gifts I decided to give her the gift of time and an experience so I found this cat cafe for us to visit.  She LOVES cats and so this fun cafe called The Casual Cat Cafe was purrfect for her! We had fun petting, holding and playing with the kitties.  One named Ford was so crazed for treats he kept biting my niece if she didn't give him one or if she gave it to another cat!  You would think he would be fat from all the treats he hogs down but he was actually the skinniest one of the bunch!  Ford is the black cat in the picture practically crawling into her lap, he was really a fun one to get to know (well, when he wasn't biting you lol!) We will be definitely going back again soon to pet the kitties!

  1. Beautiful layout, Lisa! Way to go using all the things on my list! I think I added 6 out of the 9. I bet your niece had a blast at the cat cafe and spending time with you!
