Hello, everyone! Today I'm sharing one of my retro kitty countdown cards, which is part of a set of 25 that I started last year, maybe even the year before. My goal is to finish off the remaining nine of these countdown cards before the end of November so they can be used in December as a Countdown to Christmas. The recipient will open one each day in December similar to an advent calendar. This is #1 but I have not been making them in numerical order.

Hi dear Kitty, your retro kitty countdown card is so cute!! Love the sweetness of the doilies around the delicious white kitty! And that little bow with the snowflake is a precious detail! Beautiful paper and pine branch border too! Nine countdown cards before the end of December is a great goal, you will be very busy in the next weeks!!! :)
Sending big hugs and positive thoughts sweetie, have a lovely weekend!
I love how the doilies look like a wreath around fhe kitten - very cute!
Great idea Kitty! I'm sure the recipient will enjoy seeing a beautiful handmade card every day in the lead-up to Christmas. This one is really cute, I love the image! The doily with the poinsettias is lovely and makes a great backing for your image.
Cheers,
Beccy
Such a cute retro card kitty i also like the poinsettia dolly it goes so well with the background paper...
Your recipient will enjoy having fun opening a card each day in December.
Well done Kitty.
This is super cute, I love this special doily. Great project to finish, wow.
That's a really nice idea and now of course I'm looking forward to the other 24 cards. Your first card is already so adorable, I love it.
Love all the details on this! It looks like the little kitty is framed out just perfect in a beautiful wreath.
