My card today is in honor of a crafty lady that I did not have the pleasure of knowing. Janis Woolbright is being honored on my Snarky Sister Jo's Christmas Kickstart challenge blog this month. Janis ran the annual Cat Lovers blog hop but sadly passed away in January.
I had so much fun creating with Anita Jeram's stamps the other day that I pulled out another set for today's card. I began by stamping, coloring and fussy cutting the kitty from one of her sets. I grounded her on a panel with an embossed strip of red cardstock, adding in some die cut greenery to make it a bit more festive. I stamped the simple greeting and adhered several tiny gold stars around her head for a bit of bling. I think this is a wonderful holiday card for any feline lover.
This is so lovely, Jules! What a fun image and I love how you've created your scene - so cute. Thanks for your support with this project and thanks for playing at Christmas Kickstart where we are remembering Janis Woolbright, Jo x
ReplyDeleteOh, this is so cuuuuute! The kitty is adorable and I love the added greenery behind the gifts. I love how you coloured the kitty too!

ReplyDeleteThe look on kitty's face is so precious - or is she up to something?!! Yeah, I think she's up to something. lol What a fabulous card. I love the BG color of yellow, which you don't see much of.
ReplyDeleteShe immediately unwrapped and dressed on her gift...that's so cute and your card is so adorable.
ReplyDeleteHello Julie. I love this quirky cat stamp - he's sitting so proudly next to the gifts. The die cut foliage and the embossed red plaid add to the holiday feel of your card.
