A Snarky Cat and a Winter Wonderland

More Christmas cards!  One for Christmas Crafts All Year Round "Dogs and / or Cats" and Christmas Kickstart "Gift":

Stamped, watercoloured, trimmed with a wonky stitched rectangle, bordered in black, put on a kraft card base, and a bit of Fun Flock added to the brim and pom pom of the hat.

Next up for My Time to Craft "Winter" and 52 Christmas Card Throwdown "Winter Wonderland":

I have lots of unused backgrounds in a box and found this one - blue and mauve inks brayered on glossy cs.  I stamped the trees and sentiment with Versamark and heat embossed with white.  Trimmed it and bordered with a glittery cs that blended in well with the colours.

Bird in a Santa Hat

Jingle Belles want to see a "Santa Hat" on a card and Cardz 4 Guyz want to see a "Masculine Christmas Card".  I have a friend whose kids call him "an old fart" when they're teasing him so I made this with him in mind!

I stamped and coloured the bird and Santa hat, and die cut them both.  I stuck them to a cream panel on which I'd stamped the sentiment, then rubbed some green ink around the edges of the panel to create a border.  I added it to a background of dp.
