Cat in the Christmas Tree?!

Hi friends - I'm back with another entry for the November theme of Cats and or Dogs at Christmas Kickstart #116.

Supplies: Paper - Recollections cardstock;

Pink & Main Holiday Magic papers;

Lawn Fawn patterned

Stamps w/dies - Spellbinders Crafted with Cheer (CDOM-OCT26)

Dies - Spellbinders Christmas Cats Die Bundle by Yana Smakula;

Penny Black Wood Floors;

Pink & Main Holiday Magic leftover dots

Other - Spellbinders puffy sticker

I watched Card Chaos (15 min cards) Episode #68 on Monday night and the theme was "add a tail". Of course that brought me to cats! I wanted to try a new-to-me Spellbinders die bundle by Yana Smakula featuring some sweet kitties. Because it looked like a lot of die cutting/assembling, I set the timer and worked on the card before the show started - it took 22 minutes & that was racing! Oh well, we still share those cards because the host Irene and her guest sometimes miss the goal of 15 too.

I covered an A2 card with Lawn Fawn striped paper. Die cut the window frame and backed it with a starry sky paper (also LF, I think). Added to the card. Next I cut the wood floor and trimmed it to fit my scene, then added to the card. Die cut all the other elements and assembled, then popped onto the card with foam tape. The dot ornaments were left over from a card I made this past weekend during the Pink & Main Holiday Magic event. I will share those cards when I'm finished (I have to watch a few on replay yet). The sentiment was already in the stash - I had stamped all the October Spellbinders crate sentiment when my box arrived a few weeks ago. The puffy sticker was left over from an old Spellbinders kit - can't remember which but it's many years old!

Isn't that climbing cat adorable?! Any cats I ever had would lay under the Christmas tree and play with the low hanging ornaments. I never had one climb the tree though - you?

Since my cat bundle is getting first play here, I'll also add my card to Darnell's November NBUS Challenge #92. I'm playing at Merry Little Christmas Challenge #71 too - Anything Christmas Goes (entry #2).

That's it for today. Thanks for stopping and I hope to get to your blogs more timely - I've caught up on commenting as of yesterday :)

Happy crafting!
