Christmas Kickstart #37 - Festive Furbabies

Hello friends.  Another fun challenge over at Christmas Kickstart where Jo and her elf Gail are looking for Festive Furbabies on our Christmas cards!


I hadn't used my MFT's Deck the Howls set in quite awhile, so I colored up a couple of the images to come up with a twofer for this challenge!  Here is the 1st one...


This little bruiser reminds me of our youngest daughter's puppy Vinny, so guess who this Christmas card is going to??!  I colored him up with my Copics and then added him to a die cut frame from SSS called Holiday Frames.  My card base was dry embossed with a Darice snowflake ef, and then I popped up the frame on foam tape strips, and added Vinny.  And some red & white bakers twine.


And this little guy reminded me of one of our middle daughter's miniature Dachsund's named Beamer.  Her 2nd mini dox named Royce was stamped on the inside so he doesn't feel left out at Christmas!  I didn't pop up the frame on this one but did add an extra layer of red cs behind the embossed layer.


And here are both cards together!  Quick and easy and fun and 2 of our 3 daughter's Christmas cards are done...YAY!!  Make sure you check out the great inspiration from Jo and Gail right HERE and then play along to make sure you get those cards done before December...it really will be here before you know it!!

Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!
