Doodled Cup Kitties

Hi, everyone!  Today I have a few more holiday cards to share!  As always, I've been inspired by fun challenges and events in blog land!


The adorable cup kitties stamp is from Winnie and Walter's Purrfect with Evelin T Designs. Instead of colouring the image, I did some doodling all over the cup. The only colouring is the pale pink in the kitties' ears and cheeks!  I fussy-cut the image so I could pop it up with foam tape and then layered it onto an ivory vellum oval, die-cut with My Creative Time Stitched Oval.

On the oval  I stamped a sentiment from Winnie and Walter's Winter Wishes with Evelin T Designs (I curved the clear stamp to coordinate with the oval).  I also stamped a couple snowflakes from the same stamp set.  For the background I used cardstock scraps, the colours of which were inspired by the challenge graphic below.  Lastly I embellished with a number of punched snowflakes (Recollections punch).

My colour choices were inspired by Winnie and Walter's October Colour Challenge:


I was also inspired by Beccy's Place - Month of Holiday Cards. It's an Alphabet Challenge, and Day 4 is "D" so I went with Doodling, just like Beccy did on her inspiration card.

I'm excited about the Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop - the theme is coffee, tea, cider, or cocoa!

Really adorable and so inspiring!! Your doodling is just fabulous and love the way you made the background, it's great for using scraps!! That vellum oval really makes a big difference, the kitties cup pops so well against the background!
