Jeffrey is a "Special Reason" for an "Avant Garden" layout

Hello stampers!

So sorry it's been so long, I hope you've all been well. I have had some upsetting family news, and that's why I've been absent for so long. Believe it or not... this is the first time since March 1 that I even opened my computer. I was surprised that it's been so long. A couple of months ago I was asked to make some display samples for a Stampin' Up! event and I decided one of them be a page layout.

I take a LOT, seriously... of pictures of my fur-babies, especially my Jeffrey. Rescuing him and his 4 siblings and Momma was one of the best decisions I have made. I can't believe they will be 5 in a few months. Time sure does fly. I am totally in love with the {Special Reason} bundle and had a bunch of the flowers stamped and die cut, I also had a few of the images from {Avant Garden SAB}. My boy sure does take a good photo, don't you think?

It's hard to believe that he was once a tiny kitten weighing 3.4 lbs. at the time I caught him. He was so tiny - really tiny. He's not tiny anymore. He's a whopping 26 lbs. now and is still my baby, just a big one now. Look at that face, so squishy!

I was going to add his name to this, but then decided to add the stamp from {Avant Garden} that says "Thanks for being you". I then added a partial sentiment from the {Tasty Trucks SAB} set saying "You're the sweetest". He really is. He wakes me up every morning by sitting above my head purring up a storm. Sometimes he even grooms my hair... i.e. licking my hair. It's weird I know... but I love that he's different and unique! Love him so much!!!

I hope you like my layout, if you have any fur-babies give them a hug.
