Bohemian Cats At Play

By
Aloha, Gia here with some cards I made using the following Altered Pages products:

Graphic 45 Bohemian Bazaar 8 x 8 pad

AP#1032 Collage Sheet Cats at Play




I am sure you are wondering how I came up with this particular combination so I will not keep you in suspense a moment longer. These cats are from Prague, the region of the Czech Republic where Bohemians actually come from. They also happened to be artists, musicians, and free spirits who hate conforming to such mainstream values as striving to earn money.  They tend to be fiercely independent and a bit cynical, but they enjoy a good frolic on the tennis court- since they come from mostly affluent or middle class families. I personally have never met a cat who wasn't a Bohemian, but I understand there are all types.





In conclusion, here are the top 3 things that make me smile:
3. Bohemian Cats
2. Bohemian Bazaar paper
and (drumroll please)
1. Art supplies from Altered Pages!
Keep on creating!

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.
