Peace on Earth Christmas Challenge #112

Hello friends.  It's been awhile since I've made a Christmas card and figured I better get crackin' before the holiday is here!  I know, I know...it's 6 plus months till Christmas, but it really will be here before we know it!!  So anyway, I loved the critter mood board at the Peace On Earth Challenge and decided to play along!


Aren't they all so sweet?!  I was inspired by the kitties in their Christmas hats on the top left photo and pulled out an older Anita Jeram set called Christmas Hats for my card...


He's all decked out in his Santa hat and his Christmas offering of the Holly branch (probably a gift for his girlfriend Claudia!) and was colored with my Copics and fussy cut before adding to the scalloped arch die cut.  I did use an older brick die from The Greetery at the top of the arch die cut and then stamped my sentiment towards the bottom in Real Red ink (SU!). 


I did use foam tape on the back of the arch (to make the bricks stand out more) and also the kitty cat, and then added even more texture and dimension by adding an embossed panel using SSS's Snowflake Visions ef.  Pretty simple card but I really like the way it turned out!

Make sure you check out all the awesome cards from the talented DT over at the Peace on Earth challenge site and then play along...it's never too early to get started on those Christmas cards!!  This challenge is open till Thursday, June 4th @ 8:00PM.


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

Marcia, you've added so much interest to your very CAS card with the embossed panel, die cutting that arch, and dimension for your little cutie with his red cap! This will surely bring joy at Christmas to one lucky recipient! Gosh, this is just perfection!

That little guy is the center of attention on your marvelous CAS card, Marcia, but you added such great details that shouldn't be overlooked. The bricks, arch and embossing gave him a wonderful place to send Christmas greetings from.
