Hello friends! Maybe you remember the "Bewitched" Halloween kitty I shared in a previous post. I had mentioned I felt it could be used for occasions other than Halloween. Well, here it is for Christmas and looking just as cute as ever and still a little bewildered. I do love those eyes!
With the help of another die set I altered the witch's hat to turn it into a Santa's hat. The hat trim and pom pom were coated with a white dimensional product and fine glitter. Very sparkly! The sentiment gives him a place to sit. The card base with Christmas lights edging was sent in a goodie envelope by my blogging friend, Sue, who makes amazing things on her Silhouette. I lined the inside with designer paper which shows as a border when the card is closed.
Happily, I have time to get this into the Peace on Earth Christmas Challenge. The inspiration board is full of Santas (not required), and my cat is wearing a Santa hat.
It was so nice of you to come visit today, and I hope to see you again real soon. Have a happy day!

ReplyDeleteThis is brilliant, Leslie! I'm happy to see this Ogle eyed cat once again, especially as a Christmas kitty. You're so clever to have used a witch's hat and turn it into a Santa hat. I like the lighted edge of the card with the peek of patterned paper coming through. This is truly adorable!

Leslie this is an outstanding card I don't what I like more your Kitty or that gorgeous border. They are both so unusual and a great use of making Halloween into Christmas cards. I'm always impressed with what you come up with.
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute kitty. Love the card base cut and of course all the added textures you added to make it your own.
ReplyDeleteHa! I thought this looked familiar! Super cute kitty-you are so clever girlie! 🎅❄️Sue Kment
