Here is what I created for the hop today:

The kitty on my card today is from the Newton's Holiday Mischief Stamp Set. I wanted to create a fun and festive card featuring our kitty, Newton! If you don't know yet, our company is named after our orange kitty Newton. We lost Newton in 2019 but he definitely still lives on in our orange logo and I still love to color our stamped kitty images orange! I added some fun stripes to the kitty and accents with a white gel pen. The image was cut out using the coordinating Newton's Holiday Mischief Die Set. 

Here is a close-up so you can see the coloring details:

For the card background I created two rows of trees using our Christmas Tree Line Stencil. This stencil has three rows on one stencil that can be combined to create decorative trees. One row has the bold tree centers, one row has the trunks and stars and the third row has decorations that can be added to the tree. All the rows also have etching so you can line up the different elements.  I used just the bold tree centers and the row with the stars and trunks. I stenciled them twice to make two rows of trees on my card. I should have left a little more space between my rows as the tree tops and stars almost touch the trunks above them,  but I decided it was still cute and used it anyway! For this card I skipped the row with the decorations but you could add that if you want to have a more festive feel. 

I assembled the card, adding the kitty on the bottom and mounted it on a kraft colored card base. The finishing touch is the sentiment "'Tis the Season to be MEOWY!" which was stamped from our Newton's Gift Stamp Set. I hope you enjoyed this card today!
