You will remember that this challenge has been organized to honour Janis Woolbright from Her Peaceful Garden, who hosted the annual Cat Lovers Hop and who sadly passed away in January 2023. Note this is not a time for sadness; it's time for fun! Janis would have wanted it that way! If you love cats and Christmas, then head over and check it out! The challenge runs until October 31.
The cute kitty is a stamp I don't own, but the stamped image was sent to me by a sweet friend (thank you so much - you know who you are!). The maker is AALL & Create, and from a Google search I found the name of the stamp is Whiskers in Wonderland, so cute!
The theme for Day 8 is Let's Play Tic-Tac-Toe with Gail, and she has put together a fun tic-tac-toe board featuring some of Janis's cards to inspire us. It's like a challenge within the challenge, and I am excited to play along! Scroll down to see the game board! I chose the left-hand column of Die-cut, Glitter, and Embossing.
Here is my card:

This sweater kitty is all ready for the snow! I was excited to colour the image with markers and then fussy-cut so I could pop her up on foam tape. I also added Star Dust Stickles to the white parts of kitty's hat.

Adorable card ♥️
Another WOW card with your die-cut glitter and embossing! I an see a kitty that resembles your Sweet Pea looking very festive. Gosh I love your embossed background! That's gorgeous! The red really pops on the card too! So talented! xx
Cute kitty and a pretty embossed background design! Great card!
A very cute kitty Christmas card and a lovely tribute to Janis.
Thanks for coming to play in the Snippets Playground. See you in the swings later. Xxx
This is such a cute card and yet another fun tribute to Janis. I love all the sparkle on the fur and sentiment panel and that embossing looks beautiful. Sending you hugs and blessings for a great Thursday!
That's a sweet Kitty and card! Thanks for sharing your lovely card with us at the Jan's Digi Stamps Challenge.

A real cutie Kitty. I love everything about it.
I am sorry I haven't emailed you, but things are still very raw for me at the moment. Thank you for emailing me, I really appreciated it.

Darling kitty in his striped outfit and Santa hat, Kitty! Love the embossing behind him too with the glittery sentiment!
Hi Kitty! That embossing folder is fabulous! I love the Tic-Tac-Toe challenge within the challenge, such a clever idea. Super cute card!
Oh Kitty, this is just purrrfect! One of my favorites of the challenge. I love AALL images, but this one isn't familiar to me. Will have to put it on my wish list ; so cute! That EF is really spectacular!
Adorable card and that cat in its hat!
SOOO cute and I love that embossing folder! Precious card.

Fabulous card! Darling kitty (colored beautifully), like that embossing folder and the glitter is a perfect touch!
Hi dear Kitty!
I immediately recognized that Apple Blossoms EF, I have some of this line with that design but different patterns. Love this one, and it's just perfect to show up that adorable kitty!!! She has a very cute face and love how you coloured her!! The stickles on her hat look so well! Love the sparkling sentiment too, and the cute snowflakes, well done using your scraps!
Hope to have time to play with Gail's Tic-Tac-Toe board.
Your meme makes me smile! And such beautiful cat, it seems just my Rosso! But we haven't snow in my zone LOL
Thanks for telling me how you cut the glitter foam. I guess you have a guillotine trimmer. I have a trimmer where the blade runs horizontally and it gets stuck with the glitter foam. Next time I will use a simple cutter and a ruler:)
Sending hugs and love! And cuddles to Sweet Pea! :)
Such a gorgeous card, Karen. Lovely embossed background and a beautiful, bold and glittery sentiment are perfect to showcase this little kitty. I immediately recognised this sweet kitty cat as the artwork of Janet Klein for AALL & Create (she's the lady behind the digis at Vera Lane Studio where I'm on the DT). Absolutely gorgeous!I love his glittery fur trim :) x
What an adorable card the ef is fabulous and you used perfectly love the vibrant green and red love your card.
Gorgeous card Kitty - such a sweet kitty and I have and love that embossing folder!
Hugs

Dressed warmly and wearing such a chic Santa hat, you can play wonderfully in the snow. I'm really excited about your card design, it looks like a perfect snowy landscape.
Very playful creation, Karen! Love the texture of the embossing, the touch a glitter and the beautifully colored image. Thank you for sharing your talents with us at Jan's Digi Blog Challenge. Good Luck!
Hugs,

What a wonderful card, Kitty! I love how you used the embossing folder as your background - the whole design just works so well and I love that little kitty! Thanks for everything you're doing to help make this a celebration of Janis, Jo x
Very sweet 💐☺️👏👏👏 happy day
Wow! Awesome card Kitty! I love the gorgeous embossing, and the kitty looks so cute with his Santa hat! So glad you got to play along with the Tic Tac Toe challenge. Haven't gotten mine entered yet, but hoping to do it soon. Your cards always make me smile; I enjoy looking at them so much! :)
This is such a cute card! I love how his hat is frosted with glitter that looks like snow. And that sweater - adorable! You did a great job coloring him too. Janis would be so very happy. As guest designer over at Word Art Wednesday this month, I just wanted to stop over and say thank you for joining us this time!
