What's New Pussycat?

I have a confession to make. I used to buy stamps, get them here and then use them a lot right away. I've been bad lately. I have several stamp sets that I've not even used! I do cut the rubber right away and get them on my shelves. But I have.. at least 5 sets that I've not used. It's terrible. It's also a sign of too much shopping I think. Why oh why is it so easy to buy online? haha!

This is one of those sets. I HAD to have It's a Mod, Mod World *which gets "It's a small world" stuck in my head all the time by the way* a few weeks ago. I felt I would perish if I didn't have it. I love space, and retro visions of the future. And cats. So you can see it was made for me.

Well finally last night I whipped up a card using it. What do you think?
The coloring is done with copics, then I went over it with the copic pens.


In other news:

Hobby Lobby had their felt pieces on 40% off last night so I stocked up, I got like 30 of them. They are normally pretty cheap but I felt like really stocking up. I got some with tiger stripes, my youngest son loves tigers.

I'm all excited about this weekend when I have that stamp convention in Orlando with my friend Anita. I can't imagine what I'd need to buy, but I'm excited anyhow. My family and I are going to Sea World Friday, then Saturday I'll go to the convention and the boys will go to a second day at Sea World. I'm sure the boys will love it. At our zoo their favorite thing are the fish that are in some exhibits.
