Creative Crew

 Since it is the 15th of the month, this means it is time for our Creative Crew bunch.  I was lucky enough to be the hostess this month.  I had looked at different celebrations in November and noticed that November 3-9 is National Animal Shelter Appreciation Week.  Since I adopted my 2 kitties 17 years ago from a local shelter, this is very special to my heart.  



Little did I know that when I selected this theme that I would lose one of my kitties.  We believe he had cancer and just had not been himself the last year.  So double whammie for me.  I lost my dad and one of my kitties the same week.  My current kitty is lost without his brother.  He walks around the house meowing.  I have had cats all my life and have loved them from the beginning.  The worst part is saying goodbye. 

So back to my theme.  November 15 is I love to Write Day so I decided to have kitties and books as my theme.

For my card I am using the following:
Newtons Nook Sips & Stories Stamp Set
Designer paper is Close to My Heart "Lovely"
The I love Book Die is by Newtons Nook Bookmark Die Set

I also asked the group to list a good book that they have read lately.  I am currently reading American Dirt and it is really good.

Be sure and check out the rest of the team to see what they came up with on this challenge.
