A Christmas Cat Tag (Heather Ellis image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

I have a stepsister who loves cats so I thought this was a perfect image for her. You can find it at Heather Ellis. I inked the background with my distress oxide ink and added some nuvo drops for snow falling.

Merry & Bright Snowman in the snow (Bugaboo image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

How great is this Bugaboo snowman for a rectangle card, he's perfect! I had this patterned paper that looks like falling snow and then I used my border dies to create "snow" on the ground, as you can see this card came together quickly but I think its a nice scene.
