National Cat Day

Doesn’t every kid dream of waking up on Christmas morning to find a sweet pet under their Christmas tree? The kids are probably hoping for a kitty or a puppy. The parents are hoping a goldfish will suffice. My Christmas card is showing all the possibilities. I think we can all agree that no one is dreaming of a mouse under their tree. 🙂

The background paper is Peaceful Place. The tree is from Whimsical Trees. The animals were all fussy cut from the Sweet Stockings Designer Series Paper (DSP).

It’s time for another Festive Friday Challenge!  This week’s challenge #FF0095 is National Cat Day World Day which is October 27th.

The Inspo List is 10 items you can choose from to create your project. Incorporate THREE or more of the items in your project and link up! #festivefridaychallenge  I hope you’ll make a card, scrapbook page or 3-D item and join us. If you want help entering, please email me at Beth@StampingMom.com and I’d be happy to help you! From the Inspo List I used cat, fish and mouse.  Your entry doesn’t have to have anything to do with National Cat Day.

For more inspiration, be sure to visit the rest of the  Festive Friday Challenge Design team.
