Hello, everybody! I was inspired by a number of challenges this week so I made four cards, all with a coffee or cocoa theme! The
Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop has been going on all week, and today is the last day, so I will be sharing all four of my cards today! Here is the first one:
Products used:
Stamps: AALL & Create Light it Up (kitty), Newton's Nook A Kitten Christmas (sentiment and holly)
Ink: Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide
Die: Memory Box Curved Happy Holidays
Embossing folder: Darice Snowflake Background
This 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!). I coloured the cat and holly images with markers, added accents with a white paint marker, and fussy-cut. I embossed a teal panel with snowflakes, adhered the curvy greeting die-cut, and stamped the sentiment directly on the die-cut. I finished the card with a few punched snowflakes.
I was inspired by the following 8 challenges (see all badges below):
Beccy's Place A Month of Holiday Cards H for Happy Holidays and Holly UE
Caffeinated Christmas CCCC23 Christmas/Holiday themed card with at least one Holly element; card can be Coffee, Tea or Hot Cocoa (
see holly by stamped sentiment)
Christmas Kickstart 80 It's Christmas, Jim, but not as we know it (
I chose non-traditional colour combo) 1/3 C8
Double Trouble 152 Deja Brew Coffee, Tea, and/or Cocoa, with optional twists to use a pun and link up at 2023 Coffee Lover's Fall/Winter Blog Hop (
I did all the things) 1/4

Here's a cat / coffee meme, just for fun! I hope it makes you smile!

Hi dear Kitty! So glad to see your kitty cards again! And you published FOUR in a day!!! Wow!! Out of my possibilities! :D
ReplyDeleteThis kitty is just delicious, such cute face!! Love how you have coloured him (despite the pink sweater, I think he is a boy! :) ) He's savouring the anticipation of his coffe with cream, slurp! :) The design is adorable with the blue EF and the curvy greeting die-cut, as he seems sitting on a snow-bank. The cute holly and snowflakes finished the card so well. Adorable!
Thanks so much for sharing your card with us at We Love Stamping!
Forgot to say Thanks for the giggle! :D How fun meme!
ReplyDeleteLove the image Kitty, and you did a fantastic job with the colouring! I love the combination of pink and teal... right down to the little holly sprig. Fabulous embossing too, fits the theme perfectly.
ReplyDeleteCheers,
Beccy

This little kitty is so cute! Your colouring is fab and I love your embossed background too. That curvy die is great and such a fun sentiment too! Thanks so much for joining in with my challenge this week at Passion for Markers. Hugs, Karen x
ReplyDeleteSo cute, love that cocoa drinking kitty!
ReplyDeleteThat die is really great as well as the image. I'm so glad you had time to create!
ReplyDeleteCute, cute, cute! An adorable kitty and wonderful embossed background. What a great die as well. Thank you for sharing your card with us at Double Trouble!!! -Donna
ReplyDeleteThis is such a cute and fun card. I love the colours you used too. Thanks for sharing with us at We Love Stamping challenge.
ReplyDeleteNice to see this little kitten on a card too. And the card is beautiful in these cool wintery tones.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you were able to get your adorable cards in for our "BeJa-Brew" challenge. This card is so adorable... love the snow border sentiment to set your adorable kitty on, great embossed background and color again the snow... thanks for sharing your adorable and fun card with us at Double Trouble.
ReplyDeleteLove the holiday greeting die and how you used it to ground your sweet kitty. So pretty!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's a good thing I don't own kitties, they would never look at me! I can't do anything without my coffee in the morning so their bowls would definitely have to wait for my coffee to take effect and get me started :-)
Have a wonderful day.
