Hello Nomad friends. Busy day in my little corner of blogland today. I'm elfing out over at the new Christmas Kickstart Challenge and the theme is Never in a Nativity. What a lark!! So anything Christmas but you can't include anything that has ever, in the whole history of the multiverse, been seen or mentioned in a nativity. So once I ruled out Mary, Joseph, babies, shepherds, wise men, palm trees, camels, sheep, cows, giraffes, donkeys, stars, angels, gold, frankincense, myrrh, Bethlehem, inn keepers, inn keepers wives etc etc etc. I went with a cat exploding out of a snowman. Like you do.........
I used CC Designs Grumpy Snowman stamp and hexagonal dies from Daisy Mae. I embossed the back panel with Do Crafts Cable Knit embossing folder. Ho Ho HO!!!!!! I've coloured with distress markers and a little gel pen and then just had to bling it up with a touch of iridescent glitter glue.
