Who is Escape Kitty?

Let me introduce myself. I am Escape Kitty.

I got my start on Sept 1, 2010 as I was out playing in the yard enjoying the birds and squirrels. Really just minding my own business. Happy. Content. Daydreaming.

When, but in an instant, I caught a movement in the corner of my eye. Since cats are noted for their superior vision, I had to do a double take because I thought my eyesight had failed me. I shut my kitty eyes for a moment and reopened them to disbelief.

A coyote? In MY yard? Could it be? And he's drooling my way? Move move move! Find my mom . Run to safety.

Big mistake! Really big mistake. Now she never lets me outside. Done - left to dream. ahhhhh but Kitty dreams really do come true.

So come follow me! I am off to Escape.

Flying Unicorns Kit of the Month Oct - Farmer's Market and Hayrides



Flying Unicorns  Oct Kit of the Month - Farmer's Market and Hayrides
October also means spooky houses, Halloween frights and scary kitties.   This is Escape Kitty whipping up a little magic to get you ready for Halloween with the Flying Unicorns Kit of the Month, Farmer's Market and Hayrides. .  

So Kitty thinks she is the Pumpkin Princess or something.  She likes going bold for the season I guess.
She did  NOT carve the pumpkin just so you know.  She is not allowed to use kitchen utensils and sharp pumpkin knives as they are way bigger than she is.

I am also thinkin she will not be allowed to help pas out candy this year because of a wee little problem we had last year.  " A piece for you and a piece for me" - doesn't work really work too well.

So how did Bewitching Kitty create this?
The leaves are Prima wooden embellishments 563868 with Viva Inca Gold - Lava Green rubbed into it.  

The  flowers are Prima's E-line flat orange flowers.  Kitty used some black cardstock and just punched the center from the McGill Starburst punch.  Topped with a gem to complete.  The black flower center helps pull a little black through the layout. 

The background was misted using a Prima Stencil 960513 and Dylusions Black Marble mist.  Then Shimmerz Dazzlers in Licorice Stick was dabbed here and there over the misted area.  
And finally, here she is lookin like a lil 'ol punkin. 


Pick your Kitty of the Month up today before it's gone.

Flying Unicorns Kit of the Month for Oct - Farmer's Market and Hayrides


Summer has bid her farewell and the morning air is crisp as the leaves turn from greens to golds.
These are the days where weekend mornings are driving down the country lane and stopping at the Farmer's market for some apple cider as the children frolic in the pumpkin patches and tug asking if they to can have a hayride. With the Solace of Fall Flying Unicorn is proud to present to you our October Kit of the month Farmer's Market and Hayrides.


The summer-flower has run to seed,
And yellow is the woodland bough;
And every leaf of bush and weed
Is tipt with autumn’s pencil now.

And I do love the varied hue,
And I do love the browning plain;
And I do love each scene to view,
That’s mark’d with beauties of her reign.
John Clare

Escape Kitty, Flying Unicorns and Authentique team up for PUUURFECTION



Authentique Seasons  "Autumn"  Collection now available at the Flying Unicorns.
The Creative Team is showcasing the new collections from Authentique .  Kitty, being the mascot for the Creative Team and the only one home at the time the papers arrived in the mail, decided to grab up the papers and craft away.  

We were sent the  Seasons "Autumn" to play with and showcase.  Kitty liked the papers because they have the same  warm colors as her fur.  

Kitty loves Autumn as well.  She loves to chase the falling leaves and smell the crisp fresh air.  Not much of a fan of the chilly weather, but is fine to sit out in the cool weather in small doses.
This is a photo of her sitting in some sunflowers -looking like the Queen of  the Autumn Parade.  Don't tell her otherwise. 


Ahhhhh flowers she cannot eat for a change because they are wonderful Prima flowers.

The gold metal adornment is once  again rubbed with Rub N Buff.  I had to assist as Kitty refuses to get the Rub N Buff in her claws.  She watches and directs but refuses to do the dirty messy work.


Here Kitty is in all her Autumn glory.  



Come visit the Unicorns store today and pick up a pack before they are gone.

Flying Unicorns Sept Kit of the Month - 50 Shades of Summer



Feelin the Love
Flying Unicorn Kit of the Month -50 Shades of Summer is finally available.  Meeeowzers is this a great kit.  And Kitty is enjoying it so very much. 

She's in a soft and snugly mood here to match the kit.  Well, the kit is not snugly - but it is soft and romantic and feminine. 



Kitty is resting peacefully on the patio chair, just watching the backyard.  No worries - I am sitting next to her.  We are having coffee on the deck together.  She is daydreaming and I am watching the sneaky dickens that she can be. 

The Dusty Attic ornate corner frames Kitty.  It's simply painted white.  All the embellishments are painted white as well to give a fresh whitewash feel. 

The design is by Tammy Henderson and used for a Mojo Monday.  


Thanks for stopping by Kitty's Place.
