Hello and welcome. I've been still dealing with health issues, but managed to get this card made using one of my favorite Christmas stamps. I must have bought this stamp at least a decade ago. It's a Stampendous stamp and I'm not sure they make it anymore. The image/saying are perfect together and reminds me so much of my own cats.
After stamping my image panel in memento tuxedo black, I colored everything using Castle Art pencils before stippling Tim Holtz brushed corduroy and Adirondack caramel inks around the panel they layered. I then edged the panel using a memento black "cat eye" ink pad before layering. Now since I didn't have matching brads, at least I none I could find, I dusted off some Stampendous Class-A-Peel jewel stickers. My card base is dry embossed using a Cuttlebug snowflake embossing folder with my big shot before sanding the raised snowflakes to make them stand out better on the black card. A gold cord and ice stickles finish off the card. I'm really happy with how this turned out since I used non-traditional Christmas colors.
