C is for Cat layout

This layout has been years in the making. Does anyone remember when we had Recollections stores? Well I do and I loved the one I had. Gosh, I guess it's been about 6 or 7 years now that they have been closed. Well while they were still open I bought this great Cat scrapbook kit from Karen Foster Design and just now dug it out and used some of it.

The photo is of my cat Cleo. I got Cleo from the Cable Guy when he came over to install the cable in my house in May, 1995. Cleo was the cutest little kitten and grew up to be a very beautiful cat. I brought him across the country with me when I moved from New Jersey to Arizona in 1997. He spent most days in the house sleeping but occasionally he would sneak out the backdoor and walk the perimeter of the yard. Cleo died peacefully in his sleep January 14, 2011. Not a day goes by that I don't miss him.

I used these items to create my C is for Cat layout:

• Cat scrapbook kit from Karen Foster Design
• tan and brown cardstock
• Kate's ABCs Cricut cartridge - C and is for Cat
• brads
• brown glitter glue

I am entering my layout in the following linky parties and challenges:

• DL ART - June Linky Challenge - Anything Goes
• Party Time Tuesdays - PTT #178 - Anything Goes
• PDE Linky Party - #13 - Many Layers

Thank you so much for stopping by and checking out my C is for Cat layout.
