Kitty Kiss

Good Morning Everyone, 
I thought I would make a start on my cards for next Christmas while I was still feeling festive, also because I ran out of time this year and ended up sending very few myself!
So this is 'Kitty Kiss' from Di's Digi Designs.
I've coloured him with promarkers and the background papers are from First Edition- Christmas Wishes. The sentiment stamp is from Lili of the Valley.

I'd like to enter the following challenges:-
Di's Digi Designs Challenge - Anything Christmas
A Gem of a Challenge - Anything Christmas
Creative Inspirations - Anything Goes

Thanks for taking the time to visit my little blog and for all your encouragement and support throughout 2015.
I would like to wish you all a very Happy Healthy and Crafty New Year

Good Morning Everyone, 
I hope you have all had a lovely Christmas. We had a fab week, lots of visitors, chocolates and star wars related lego!
It's been a bit hectic here and Tom has been poorly but some antibiotics from the Doctors has sorted him out and he's on the mend now. I haven't been in my craft room for the last 4 weeks...I'm getting withdrawal symptoms now!!

10th October : Snow Family - Always love a bit of LOTV!


28th October : Snow Bird - My fave Stampendous stamp


14th October  : Girl Sledging..more lili!


3rd October Penny Black Santa's Helper - Tom's fave!
