We have a new challenge starting today over at the Double Trouble Challenge Blog (#116). We’re a few days early, but that’s so you will have more time to join in with our partner challenge, Jingle Belles Challenge (closes 7/27).
The requirements for this challenge are easy – Thing 1 is looking for a Christmas card, and that’s the only thing needed to enter. If you want to join in the optional twist, Thing 3 is asking that you use some extra “bling” on your card or project. Finally Thing 2 says if you meet both of those challenges you can enter your card at Jingle Belles too.
My image is a stamp I’ve had from Newton’s Nook for quite a while, but never thought of using it for a Christmas theme. I colored with Copic markers, fussy cut, and added lots of glittery and shiny snowflake bling!
Joining in these additional challenges:
Newton’s Nook Inky Paws Challenge #177 – sketch

Super cuuuuuute Newton kitty, and so beautifully colored! Of course I’m bound to say that the glittery, sparkly snowflakes are my favorite, right? So pleased to combine the Double Trouble Christmas in July Challenge with Jingle Belles’ Bling on the Holidays!
Fabulous card! I love the sweet image and all your pretty snowflakes. Thank you for joining in my challenge at PFM

Such a cute kitty on top of all the blankets. Love, love, love that snowflake background!
Super cute, and the sentiment is perfect for your make-over using this stampset for a Christmas card just bringing in the Christmas colors and the add of packages and candy canes… super cute.
What a cute image of the kitty on a stack of blankets! And I love the shimmery Snowflakes in the background. Great use of that sketch too! 🙂
