Christmas Kitten

How sweet is this gorgeous Gillian Roberts stamp?!  It reminds me of when my fur babies were kittens, they're four now but still full of fun.  The image has been coloured with Promarkers and I've used ultra fine Flower Soft on the hat for some fuzzy texture.
I went for a bit of a folksy look, combining kraft with red and white and a wooden snowflake.  The papers are a bit of a stash mash of magazine freebies and Payper Box.
Some brown pearls, red gems and some red raffia complete the card.


I'm entering this card in the following challenges - 
Joanna Sheen - animal crackers
Pink Gem - #51 - kraft at Christmas
Sweet Sketch - #164 - sketch
Hiding in my Craft Room - #56 - Christmas in July
Sweet Stampin' - Christmas in July
Pattie's Creations - #49 - animals or insects
