Christmas Kittens - Pink Gem Designs

 Good evening have you all had a good day hope so. 

I see we are due some bad rain & wind her in the Uk.

Well I guess a few days of warmth was nice.

Also are you going to be watching the football Sunday. I do hope they win. 

My nephews know the family well as they went to same schools



Well I have been making some more Christmas cards and this time I have used a lovely set called

Christmas kittens from Pink Gem Designs

I am using the black & white digital but there is a Coloured set for those extra quick cards

Close up of each of the cards





I have coloured the images with my Markers
Used some old DP matted on Silver Mirri
Die cut a circle snowflake boarder and embossed the inner circle with a snowflake folder.
I coloured the circle with Brilliance ink pad
sentiments come with the set and matted these with mirri card

Well that's another little set for my collection 

maybe Rory will pinch these too. He enjoyed his little induction just did a couple of hours and is going again on Wednesday but this time is staying for lunch and then coming home.
they said he made friends easy and even when a little autistic boy was having a moment struggling with something he went quietly over to him and said are you ok. They seem impressed he was in tuned.
He does have a friend at play group who is the same and refuses to come in the room till she sees him.
They seem to just get along and accept that we are all different in our own way.

I would like to enter these into the following challenges
