Sleepy Kitty

Hello, everyone!  It's time for the mid-month reminder for the challenge from the Creative Moments Challenge blog.  The theme is: Ribbons & Bows.  I am using an image from one of our fabulous sponsors: All Dressed Up.

 Here is my card:

I used this sweet sleeping kitty image to create a cute Christmas card.  I've had it printed out for quite a while and now was the perfect chance to use it.  I used a few scraps of card stock and some polka dotted ribbon to follow the sketch.  And I colored up the kitty's bow to match the ribbon.  

You have all month to play along.  So, get inky and link up your creation; I can't wait to see what you create!

Supplies:
Stamps: All Dressed Up "Christmas Kitty" digi; Verve "Peace On Earth" sentiment
Dies: Spellbinders "Classic Circles, large"; MFT "Blueprints 13" washi strip and "Fancy Flourish"

Challenges: 









Snippets Playground #480--anything goes with snippets (all the patterned papers were scraps, the sentiment strip was die cut from scraps and the image was printed for a project I never ended up creating)
MFT Christmas--anything Christmas goes
C.R.A.F.T. #721--Christmas
Jingle Belles--tree skirt tic-tac-toe (I used the diagonal: ribbon, red or green, silver)













Double D--polka dots













Krafty Chicks #717--all occasions
