****************************************

SPECIAL DEDICATION OF THE
2022 CAT LOVERS HOP

In loving memory of
Sue Eisenhauer (Ike)

As most of you know, we lost a beloved member of our Cat Lovers Hop Family this year.  Sadly, our dear friend and cat lover, Sue Eisenhauer (Ike), lost a hard-fought battle against cancer.  We all knew her as the creative genius behind Ike's Art, Ike's World Challenges, and Show Us Your Pussycats Challenges.

Ike was a friend and faithful encourager to crafters all over the world...as well as a tireless supporter of this Hop.  She spontaneously offered a prize from her blog the first year we ran the Hop and sponsored every year after that, becoming the official sponsor of our Daily Games feature.   

Ike launched the Show Us Your Pussycats Challenge Blog immediately after the first Cat Lovers Hop back in 2015 to keep the feline frolics going.  It proved to be a popular challenge....a fun and inspiring place for us to play throughout the year in between Cat Hops. (We are so grateful to another dear Cat Hop Family member, Fiki, for taking over the duties of the SUYP Challenge Blog now that Ike is gone. ❤❤❤)

In appreciation for all Ike did for so many of us, I am dedicating this year's Cat Lovers Hop to her memory.  Thank you, Ike.  We miss you!!   

(If you missed my tribute post back in April about Ike, you can find it HERE.  Also, the lovely Mia posted a wonderful tribute HERE.   Mia's post includes a beautiful magazine article featuring Ike that you won't want to miss.)

In honor of Ike and her wonderful art, Chris from over at Catnip and Kitty Whiskers kindly offered to Guest Design for us using Meowloween from Ike's Art.  Here's her super-fun Halloween Kitty card:

Be sure to check out Chris' blog post to find out more details about her card. Thank you, Chris, for Guest Designing!  ❤

**************************************************

How to join in the 2022 CAT LOVERS HOP:
**************************************************

There are three ways to get a chance to win a randomly-drawn prize from our awesome sponsors:  linking up a cat project, commenting on linked-up projects, and participating in the Daily Games.

1. LINKING UP A CAT PROJECT: The Cat Lovers Hop is open world-wide....so please SIGN IN, and then link up a cat-themed project right here at the bottom of THIS post by 11:55 pm Pacific, Saturday, Oct. 29, 2022.
 
There is a limit of 5 projects for the week.
I hated to have to limit the number of entries, but it was getting a little bit unwieldy for us to get around to every entry to leave meaningful comments.  Thank you for understanding! 

***Please use #2022CatLoversHop on social media platforms (e.g. FB, IG, etc.) and allow PUBLIC (or UNLIMITED or ALL) permissions to view...not just FRIENDS...or most of us won't be able to see or to comment on your project!***


You may enter your project in as many other challenges as you wish. See my 2022 Cat Lovers Hop Guidelines and FAQs HERE to see what qualifies as a cat-themed project, so you don't miss out on being eligible for the prizes!! Around half the prizes will be randomly drawn from projects linked on this page. Be sure to include my 2022 Cat Lovers Hop Badge in your post.
 
 


2. COMMENTING ON LINKED-UP PROJECTS:  Leave a comment on any or all of the cat projects from the link up. The more comments you leave, the better your chances of winning!
 
Yes, we are doing 4 Extra Days for commenting again this year!!!
Comments on projects must be made by 11:59 pm Pacific, Wednesday, Nov. 2, 2022 to be eligible for the comment prize drawings. (Those 4 extra days for commenting are especially helpful for visiting projects that come in on the last day of the link-up.)

Around half of the prizes will be randomly drawn from comments on the cat projects.  You must SIGN IN to be eligible for the comment prizes, even if you are not linking up a project.


And, yes....a PRIZE will be awarded to one randomly-drawn lucky hopper who comments on ALL the projects!!  I will have a special link-up on the final Wrap-Up Day next Wednesday, Nov. 2, 2022....which is the last day to leave comments.  If you manage to comment on all the projects in the hop by 11:59 pm Pacific that day, you can link your name up on that Wrap-Up Day to be in the super-commenter drawing.

3. PARTICIPATING IN THE DAILY GAMES:  There will be  Daily Games (usually consisting of icebreaker questions about you and your cats) at the bottom of each of my daily posts (Those posts will have titles such as: Day 1....Day 2...etc)  This feature was sponsored by Ike's Art for many years.  We will soldier on and continue the Games, but without a sponsor now that Ike is gone. 😿 However, your comments on the Daily Posts will go into the drawings for comment prizes.
 
I hope everyone will continue to participate in the Daily Games.  They are a lot of fun and really do help us get better acquainted with each other and with each other's kitties. This is one thing that makes our Cat Hops so extra special!! You can participate in any of the Daily Games anytime throughout the duration of the Hop, including the extra days for commenting.

ATTENTION Sponsor Design Team Members:
Please remind me in the comments ON THIS POST if you are on the DT of one of our sponsors so I don't accidentally award you a prize from a company you are representing!!  

NOTE TO EVERYONE:  If you tell me other places that you already have a particular set, I might not see it.  So tell me right here in the comments for this post.  This is where I will be checking.  Thanks!
 
Remember:  You must be SIGNED IN and All cat-themed projects must be linked up right here at the bottom of THIS POST to be eligible for prizes. (Please use #2022CatLoversHop on social media!!)

  25. I think Its a Facebook problem. I couldnt link from FB had to put in manually and use Link. I cant leave any comments either, gives an error message!

  26. Joining in late but from what I see so far, the entries this year are just wonderful! Hoping to get more cards made and uploaded before the end of the hop, and get some commenting done.
    As for stamp sets that I already have, it appears that the only one is the AI Feline set. As I don't currently have a cat, I would like to leave my name out of the running for the Cat Box Lady prize as well. Oh, and still no printer, so no digis please. Thanks so much Janis and thank you to the generous sponsors!

  27. Oh, and I just noticed that Riley and Company is offering their Felix the Cat stamp and die which I am already lucky enough to own too.

  31. Just an FYI, Janus, in case my name pops up as a winner of the Stamp On It prize - I'm a challenge manager for QKR Stampede, one of their digi lines, and the prize would be wasted on me since I have access to most of their digital images for my DT work. They are a delightful company and they have such adorable digi and rubber stamps. :-D

Thank you also for your wonderful dedication to Ike! It was beautifully worded! Enjoying seeing everyone's linked cards, and so thankful we have extra days to comment. Hoping I can catch up!

  35. I tried Nina Bodozian's cards 81-85 again. I can see them in Facebook but am unable to comment. I tried each one and can't seem to comment. Other people have left comments there but I don't recognize them from the hop, so perhaps Nina's friends are the only ones permitted to comment, not sure.

    2. I just tried again, Nina. I can certainly see the cards in FB - along with a few comments - but there is no option for me to comment. I don't recognize the commenters' names from the hop.

  41. This is a moving target but at this moment in time I am completely caught up with commenting and thanking sponsors. I gave it nearly the whole day again and enjoyed it very much! So many cute kitty cards and projects! I'll be back again tomorrow as I know there will be more adorable kitties to see! Really enjoying the inspiration and reminders of stamps I own that I haven't used for a while. Have a great evening, Janis!

  42. Wow! So many awesome cat projects linked up this year. I wish I had been able to join in more but we had a bout of rsv with my youngest, which included two ER visits, and two other kids down with colds. At least my girls had fun with their cat entries, even if I barely managed one. Thanks for an amazing hop Janis! By the way, my mom has the Feline Set by AI and the Felix stamp by Riley & Co., which I can borrow, so please leave me out of the drawing for those two if possible

  43. I've had a ball with seeing such wonderful inspiring projects! I have been around everyone's except fb and instagram as I dont have either. I cant comment on split coasters, though can view.

  44. All finished commenting and I have a bit of a sad face now that it's over. I really enjoyed myself! THANK YOU for all you did and continue to do to make this hop the most fun crafting event of the year! Woot, woot! I'm already looking forward to the 2023 hop!

  47. Janis...thank you so much for the lovely comments you have put on my blog! I am still commenting! Not easy as we have not had a decent internet connection since we moved into out new house on Oct 1st...

    ReplyDelete
  48. Do I get the badge for being the last to finish commenting :)
    I hope I didn't miss anyone out. Isn't it wonderful to get traffic to our blogs - it seems to be tapering off such a lot these days, or is that just mine?
    I truly enjoyed seeing everyone's amazing designs. There is so much talent and creativity here and it's such a caring community. It is always a pleasure to take part in this annual event - it's certainly the highlight of my crafting year.
    Janis, you need to put your feet up and have a well deserved rest. We need you to gather your strength ready to do it all over again (with your little helpers) next year.
    I am always amazed at how many beautiful kitty products there are and the sponsors are always so generous.
    (I do have the Lawn Fawn set which was a Cat Hop prize one year, and the Pink & Main set.)

  49. WOW! What a fantastic group of sponsors. So happy to be a first timer on this hop! TY for all you do...

  50. Hi Janis, I thought I replied on this blog eariler, but I don't see my name, so I'm commenting again! Thank you for all of the amazing comments that you left on my blog, I really appreciated all of them! THANK YOU SO MUCH for putting on this amazing event every year! I tried go to each sponsor and thanking them, but for a lot of them, I either couldn't comment on their FB page or their blog didn't leave a place for us to thank them. I completed commenting on everyone's blog except for Nina Bodozian #81, #82, #83, #84 and #85 because I couldn't. I think you had to be her friend in order to comment.
    Please note the I already own the following stamp sets:
    Art Impressions - Catastrophy Set 4933
    Sunny Studio Stamps - Meow & Fur-Ever
    Heffy Doodle - Purr-fect Day
    Thanks you so much again.
