Day #15 The Cat Lovers Christmas Challenge - Game #4 Becca's Quiz



Welcome to Day #15 of our challenge where we're remembering our friend cat lover and fellow crafter, Janis through cardmaking and fun.

Before we get going I'd like to say a big thank you to my sweet friend Gundi who spotted that some of your comments weren't appearing as they should. This called for some serious detective work...

And after little squirreling in the Spam folder, I found the missing comments. Thanks for the heads up, Gundi, that was a great spot on your behalf and I'm so grateful for your help. I think it's happened mainly on the comments for Name the Cat as Blogger thinks the multiple entries are spam. Thanks to Gundi I'm on the case now and checking the Spam folder every day!

So, Day #15 - here we go....

I'm blown away to be able to add three additional sponsors to the Sponsor Family list! 

First of all, please welcome a newer company 


Alex Siberia Designs

Alex Syberia Designs is a UK-based stamp company offering high-quality stamps, dies, stencils and hot foil plates. Whether you're a coloring enthusiast, traditional stamper, floral fan or critter lover, we have the perfect products to help you express love and joy through your handmade creations.

Alex Syberia Designs was founded in 2020 by Alexandra, a self-taught graphic designer with a background in interior design. The company started off with digital products (stamps and cut files), and in 2022 it expanded into physical products such as stamps, dies, stencils, and hot foil plates.

In 2021, Alex met Natalia in the craft community. They launched a successful Kickstarter campaign in 2022, which led to the release of the first collection of physical products.

  1. A big thank you to the three new sponsors! Sadly I'm not on Flickr, so Thanks Becca for the random prize and also for the fun quiz. English isn't my language, so for me it's a bit difficult finding the correct answers, also as my time is very limited. But I appreciate the offer of this game!
    Your card with Alex Syberia's pets is a DELIGHT!! How cute!! And such fabulous fun expressions have those cats and dogs! Great colouring too! This type of card could be just perfect for fund rising to collect money for the Rescue Centre!
    Fingers crossed for the cute beautiful couple of today's kitties. Hope they find a loving home early!
    And the meme... LOL It is so true! :D
    Fingers crossed for

Your colouring looks amazing, and I love all of those kitties amongst the dogs! Thank you to Becca for the quiz - it looks very challenging! Maybe there's one question that I could answer off the top of my head, so I will have to make some educated guesses at the rest LOL.
