Meow-y Christmas

     This adorable kitten in a stocking came from Limited Runs and is their current progressive challenge image.  I don't have to tell you how much I love it!


     I decided on a fairly CAS card right away because I really wanted the kitten to be showcased, not buried in embellishments.  I colored the image with ProMarkers, added glitter to the red stripes on the stocking, and fussy cut it after the glue for the glitter dried.

     I printed the sentiment and hand cut it.  I found a scrap of green CS, die cut it with a square die from Lawn Fawn, and added the stocking to the top of it, using dimensional tape.  I made a small double bow by stitching together one of my tiny bows and a bow made from gingham ribbon, then I attached both of those to the green square along with the sentiment.

     The polka dot papers are from SU and both were scraps in my stash.

     Today I had 2 posts and tomorrow I'll have 4!  That happens every once in a while when the first of the month falls on a Friday and then I end up with 4 DT cards which all have to post on the same day.  Whew, I'd better go get those posts scheduled.  :-D  Happy Crafting.  NanaConnie
