Cat Lover's Christmas Challenge - Remembering Janis at Christmas Kickstart

 

 
This month Christmas Kick Start Challenge is remembering Janis - with The Cat Lovers Christmas Challenge. 

I have not entered Janis's challenges but have commented a few times on friend's entries over the years. 

Anyway, yesterday afternoon I made a card to enter this month's challenge. 

This is on old woodblock stamp from Stampendous - Fluffles Garland.  I've had it for 13 years - got in November 2010. .  I used Memento Inks to paint the image.  Added some splatters of gold sparkle pen.  Used my trusty Gina K Master Layouts to die cut the panel and the background patterned paper and all the layers.  

Thanks for stopping by.  It's the7th here so WCMD - I had to go out earlier in the afternoon and visited the local Spotlight store.  They have a great craft area.  I saw some lovely 6x6 papers.  Said to myself - You Do Not Need More paper!  - Response - hey they are 48 pages double side and only $5 each!  - so yes, I got two packs.   One florals and one Christmas - they are by Francheville.  I did get a quick card made using a design from the summit - still have to take a photo of it.

Yay for Fluffles! I have a small collection of wood-mounted Fluffles myself and I love this one! Your card is adorable, and your colouring looks so cute - I love the tabby stripes! Thanks so much for joining us at the Cat Lovers Christmas Challenge! I hope you'll come back again with some more adorable Christmas kitty cards!

What a great stamp that is! I just searched it and only found it two places on ebay for over $20! Love the way you colored that cutie and added some sparkle with great layers!

Fluffles is naughty, but oh so funny too! Beautiful colouring on the stamped image - I love that you made him a ginger-ish tabby. The green plaid background paper adds to the festive feel of your card. Beautiful, Dawn!
Thank you for joining the special Cat Lovers Christmas Challenge in memory of our lovely friend, Janis Woolbright. x

How delightful is your card, that image of such a mischievous kitty gave me a giggle hanging over the vine! Fluffles has wondered what he's got himself into by his expression. What a fun stamp and no matter the age of it, its still very relevant and up to date even today! Thanks for joining us at the Cat Lover's Christmas Challenge!
