Sam's Christmas Card

I am well into my hosting month at 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown and this Saturday it is a theme challenge. This is Sam, our much loved rescue cat, who joined our family five years ago as a very mature, streetwise gentleman looking for some loving care in his old age.


So he was my inspiration for today's challenge..


I have had this stamp forever and it only took a few moments to colour it ginger, using my Promarkers. I stamped the tree first, from Lovely As A Tree and added some sparkly bits with three colours of stickles


Once dry, I added my fussy cut cat and created the sentiment using you Little Furball and Ornamental Pine


Last Christmas I even found Sam his own pair of antlers


..doesn't he look happy!!

    Oh Louise! I just love that photo of Sam in his antlers - he is so gorgeous! Wonderful card too and a very clever combination of those two sentiment stamps. Such a great challenge, April xx
