Some Card Patterns Cards

It's been hectic over here, but we are having a great time with our guests. They've been teaching English and computer classes and getting lots of great conversations. My youngest has the sickies, too, but I think she's on the mend now. In light of this, I haven't' been able to blog hop and visit you all lately. I know I'm missing some beautiful creations by you all.

Here are a couple of cards for Card Patterns that I haven't yet posted on my blog. The first card uses the Hero Arts Four Dolls set and Cosmo Cricket Early Bird patterned paper.

This is this week's card using a Stamping Boutique digital image. The patterned papers are Origins by Basic Grey. You have till midnight tonight to play along with this week's sketch.

Something random...Croatian life tidbit: I just answered the door to the town rat killer. It's a public service provided by the government and he visits each home to check if we have rats he could help us extinguish. Since we have a lot of stray cats around, we don't have that problem. Pretty interesting service, isn't it? Life in rural Croatia is never boring :-).

    Did you know that the Health Inspectors in our in our so called civilized western culture actually have their origins in the profession of the ratcatcher? My DH, a retired building inspector, enjoyed teasing the local health inspectors with that fact ;-)
