Hi everyone!  These cute kitties are all festive, toasty and warm!  So cute and fun to color and embellish with all the little extras in the stamp and die sets, the holly, the santa hats, the bow, the gift and so much more! I used the poppystamps Purr-fect Holidays stamp set and matching die set, Cat Friends stamp set and die set and Kitty Cat Gift stamps and die set

The dies I used are the poppystamps Classic Brick Fireplace, Stocking Garland, Warm and Cozy Fire, Fireplace Logs and Pine Garland.

The fireplace inside wall is ink blended with Distress ink pads and ink blending tools, Squeezed Lemonade and Wild Honey.  The fire and logs are die cut in white card-stock and then colored.  The fire with Distress ink pads and ink blending tools, Squeezed Lemonade, Wild Honey and Fired Brick.  The logs with Copics.

I stamped with the MISTI, Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copic Sketch markers, W3, 5, 7 walking kitty, YG17, 25 holly and gift, R46, 27, 89 stocking and hats, Y23, 26, 28 yellow kitties, E 33, 35, 37 brown kitty, E43, 44, 47, 49 logs.

I ink blended the walls and floor of the card-base with Tumbled Glass, Antique Linen and Pumice Stone Distress inks.

The white on the stocking and hats is Nuvo White Crystal Drops.

This is an A-2 size card. I know my grandchildren are kitty lovers and they will enjoy this card. hehe

I’m going to give the 30 Day Coloring Challenge a try this month!  eek!  Today is Day #1 and I am actually ready with a card!  I hope I can keep up!  I have plenty of stamps and dies I can color for sure!  Wish me luck! lol

  2. Oooooooh I SO love this card!!! The kitties are adorable and colored so beautifully! The fireplace is so warm and cozy! Wish I could just crawl up next to it!! One of my all time “Pam” favorites!!

  3. This is purr-fectly adorable Pam. We love kitties too & I agree it’s a super cute card for the grand kids. LOVE to see you coloring & you make me want to join the 30 day challenge… keep em coming !!!

  4. What a cute card Pam! I’m also participating in the 30 Day Color Challenge. I’m going to focus on coloring and probably not get many cards made. 😦 Oh well, at least hopefully I will have a lot of images to make cards with! Yah! 🙂

  5. So adorable! Those kitties in the stocking look pretty toasty over the fire. Beautiful glow inside the fireplace, and love the logs and fire. Well, it’s all just sooooo cute! Have fun with the coloring challenge. You don’t have to finish something every day. Just color a little bit. I did it one month, but after a while I slacked off on the linking up. I’ll be watching you!

  6. Such a fan – your site is beautiful, your cards are beautiful, I think it’s safe to say you are beautiful inside and out! I admire your dedication to your blog, creating on a consistent basis, and following up with fans – you’re a delight!

  7. I am a kitty and dog person so this one warmed my heart. I had not thought to use the Nuvo drops to “paint”with like you did on the stocking, is on my list to try. Great job and great coloring.
