I am absolutely delighted to have been invited to be guest designer at CAS Christmas this month. The theme this month is Cats and/or Dogs, and it will be no surprise to you to learn that I decided to use cats.
This cute little kitty in a Christmas hat was part of a magazine freebie stamp set some years ago, with the sentiment in the same set.
I stamped and fussy cut the kitty, then coloured with Promarkers. To give the hat a bit of bling, I used matching sparkly texture paste on the tip of a very fine paintbrush. Two strips of matching sparkly washi tape provided a floor for the kitty to sit on.
Now I also had sparkly washi tape and texture paste in a light jade colour, so while I was in the mood, I made exactly the same card in a different colourway:
I'm looking forward to visiting all your entries over at CAS Christmas and seeing all your festive felines and Christmassy canines!
I am sharing this with:
