Rubber Dance Sponsors the Christmas Cat Lovers Hop

Hello Nomad friends.  As you may know The Christmas Cat Lovers Challenge, which is being hosted over at The Christmas Kickstart Challenge blog, is in full swing and Rubber Dance is one of the sponsors.  For many years in October Janis Woolbright hosted the Cat Lovers Hop on her blog. Janis was a great friend, inspiration and support to many. She passed away suddenly in January 2023 and this event is a tribute and remembrance of her. Rubber Dance was one of the sponsors of the Cat Lovers hop for many years and Susanne has kindly offered a €10 voucher to the shop. There are lots of other sponsors too, so do hop over and check out all the fun and games.  Today Rubber Dance is a featured sponsor and I have made this card using a stamp from Garden Cats and stamps from Textured Xmas Trees for the tree and the cat's hat!!!

 

I did a fair bit of outside the box thinking for this card.  The cat is the cat, but I wanted a hat, so a Textured Xmas Tree coloured red with a bit of hand wiggle cut white glittery card for the fluffy brim seemed the thing.  For the mat, upon which I set the cat, I used a grid stamp from Mixed Media Marks, stamped on white card, deckle cut and roughly coloured with green Promarker.  I stamped and fussy cut another of the Textured Xmas Trees and coloured it.  I decided it needed a pot and used the large round bauble from Watercolor Xmas, with the top cut off and stamped with a snowflake from Whimsical Winter.  The sentiment is a collaboration of two stamps from Purr-fect! and Christmas Tags stamp sets.


Hop over to the Christmas Kickstart Challenge and check out all the awesome fun and games.  There be prizes.  

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz

    Such a cute kitty, love the detail on his fur to look like a tabby! Your wonky musical tree is so much fun and I love the sentiment! So much creativity here! I am enjoying your kitty cards!

    This is super cute and funky and I just love it! I'm a huge fan of anything 'texty' so I love the tree with the musical score.
