Christmas Cats and that Elf.

This card for Grandson No2 has been received now so I can show it. He loves cats. They have 3 at home. 
The digi is by Card Making Downloads called 'Christmas Cats' set 2. Coloured using my Graph'it Pens and three different gel pens. The Merry Christmas is a  set by Britannia Dies. Cut several times and layered up for depth.  The cat in the middle is very much like one of their cats  'Miss Piggy' and I used to have an odd eyed White Persian.


 Ok, ok, so I gave in !!. 
Whilst that isolation pod is escape proof it is not sound proof and after putting up with 2 days of him alternately crying, yelling, pleading and telling me he had really, truly learn't his lesson and would be good from now on and do everything he was told I made him a mask!
I am seriously loosing the plot here!!!



I am taking him over  to Pixies Crafty Workshop #393  as I only used a 4" square snippet of material.


There will be another Spot The Difference on Wednesday 9am so make sure you have a clean hanky and elastic in case your Big girls bloomers should let you down. 

Hugs
Stay Home and be Safe.

Great cat Christmas card, always good when they are tailored to the person on the receiving end. Elf still looks full of mischief behind his posh mask and well done for covering the Snippets challenge with the small piece of fabric!!

Great coloring of the cats and love how you made them resemble your own cats.
What a fab mask for L'th (Harry told me he is jealous!). You're too kind for him.

Oh you do make me laugh, the elf not the card, obvs! Love the card and I know someone who would love this so I must search it out. That's one smart little elf you have there. x

Fabulous card for your grandson Mrs A- that's a great digi. So pleased you took pity on Lth- no one deserves to spend Christmas locked in an isolation pod, and he does look cute in his mask!
Have a safe and happy Christmas.

Your grandson and I both love cats! This card is adorable! I love how you personalized the kitties! Well done on the mask for L'th - I'm sure it will help but, knowing him, you'll still need ear plugs. I'm all ready for the next Spot the Difference!

Donna said...

Your cat card is just adorable and I am so glad you let your elf out of isolation-darling mask!

Suze said...

Lovely kitty card. I like that you personalised the cats to make the card more special.
I knew that L'th would get a mask somehow - didn't think he would wear you down so that you would make him one though. He looks very prepared in his mask. I like that you named the mask so he knows that it is his mask.
Looking forward to the next Spot The Difference.

Your kitty card is wonderful Valery, the cats are fabulous images and beautifully coloured, super design.
I love Little L'th face mask, lets hope he behaves himself, Kate x

Love your card with the kitties, and the little mask is adorable!

Carol S. said...

Mrs A, I do love reading your blogs, as they make me smile. The Elf is great fun and very naughty, so the mask should make him a bit quieter!! Help!! I think I am loosing the plot too!!
Love the cats card. I do miss having cats but we live to near a road to have one. We always had 2 at a time. I am sure your grandson will love it.
Big hugs, Carol S.xxxx

A fabulous cats card, so beautifully coloured! Your grandson will love it surely!
Yeah for L'th freedom, he seems shocked by his isolation!

Claire said...

Love, love the cats... so unique, they remind me of sewn cats like door stops and nice to personalise them for your grandson. Sweet mask for a naughty elf x

Di said...

I'll send Dudley round and you can both be barking together! Sniggering here :) xx

Ps I know how small that little guy is so your mask for him is a real work of art! You don't need Specsavers for sure! xx Di xx

LesleyG said...

Fabulous personalised mask, you know you had to.......I’ve been waiting to see him all year! Xxx

Faye Wynn-Jones said...

That mask is so cute, but I bet it's not soundproof ;) Our Daniel loves this card, he spotted the resemblance to Piggy straightaway x

KandA said...

Fabulous card and lovely kitties, and I love the mask you made for Elf... just hope he behaves himself xx

Karenladd said...

oh my gosh...I didn't think that L'th could be any cuter but that mask is just too, too much! I'm so glad that you caved in and made him a mask because what is Christmas without a naughty elf to keep you entertained?! I'm sure he learned his lesson (at least for the time being anyway), and now all the other elves will be begging for masks as well. Merry Christmas L'th!!

Karenladd said...

I was so entranced and distracted by that little elf mask on L'th that I forgot to say how much I love your cat card. The customized kitties and holiday outfits on them are adorable!
