Hello, everyone! Today I'm sharing another card in my series of retro kitty countdown cards. I explained what they are on this post. My goal is to finish 25 of them by the end of November so I'm making them a priority. Note that I have not made them in any order, so I still have about 10 more to make.
My card design was inspired by The Outlawz Wednesday Sketch Challenge:
I don't generally make square cards so I made mine rectangular and also flipped the corner embellishments to the opposite side.
The adorable and sweet mistletoe kitty is from my friend Kym at By Vintage Design,. I inked around the image with Antique Linen Distress Ink. I die-cut the image into a circle and mounted on a red glitter circle (both Die-mond Dies). Following the sketch, I mounted the circle on a die-cut square of snowflake paper and then sheet music paper (both from Cosmo Cricket).
I used thin scraps of red glitter cardstock to make a frame according to the sketch and adhered some gold-coloured holly leaves (from my old Dollarama stash) at the corners, along with some red gems. For my retro countdown number 23, I die-cut with a circle from a 6x6 Christmas paper pad (can't remember which pad I used, sorry). Lastly I adhered a self-made sentiment (Microsoft Word).
I would also like to join the following 9 challenges, for a total of 10:
ABC Christmas Sept 14 S for Snow UE (snowflake paper)
