We are delighted to have several guests joining us this month, in addition to our regular designers.  You'll be coming to me from Kulbir and headed to see Kate after me!  If you get lost along the way, all the links can be found on the SNS blog!

And here's another look at my card!  I'm featuring the adorable Christmas hats stamp by Anita Jeram, I chose the cat & mouse for this card and paired it with some greenery with an ornament (made with Tim Holtz's Circle Words dies) hanging from it.   I tried to color the cat to look like ours, though my color is a bit off... and I'm sure she wouldn't be smiling if I had her wearing a toque!  LOL



I cut the base layers with new Prism Studio Stitched Rectangles.  These are the two largest sizes and they are perfect for slim layers on an A2 card!  They cut really nicely and are an excellent price.  I think there are 10 dies in the set!


I cut the ornament from beautiful Ruby fine glitter cardstock by Prism Studio and layered it over a small stitched circle, in a deeper red which I also sprayed with some gold mica spray for extra shine.  The branches are from two different die sets in two shades of green, both inked with some brown for a bit of depth.  A few blingy red "berries" add a festive touch!


Thanks for stopping by!  

Inky hugs,
Tara

Such a sweet scene with the kitty and mouse, decked out in their cute toques, enjoying some together time under the branches and ornament. Festive fun in every way!

The blingy red berries are such a great idee, I will have to file that away with other tip.
