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.

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.
Gosh, this card is the whole package! A darling critter, the arch with the bricks cut into it (love that!), the embossed background, scallops... sigh... utter Christmas joy!
Adorable card Marcia. That kitty is so cute in his red hat and holding the holly branch for Claudia. :) Love all the texture and layers, especially that die cut brick in the arch panel.
This is so adorable, Marcia! The arch panel with the bricks cut out is perfect for this little cutie in his red hat. The snowflake background is wonderful!
Love the arched design piece that show this sweet kitty off perfectly! The bricks add such interest and so does the embossed background! That pop of color with the kitty is amazing!
Oh My Stars . . . this is just too cute Marcia and I simply LOVE your overall design! All the white space really brings focus to this cute little guy!! Thanks so much for joining in the fun at our Peace on Earth challenge! Good Luck and we hope you’ll come back often.
