Christmas in July Kitty

It is July  and time for some Christmas card making, I do love making Christmas Cards!!
No you are not seeing double,  this is my second Christmas card using this wonderful cat image from Doodle Pantry. I  love this kitty cat  she is just so cute. I used two different images and merged them together to get the  Christmas picture I was looking for. Starting to really like merging:).

Card details:
Stamps:  Shaggy Cat from Doodle Pantry, Christmas Accessories from Doodle Pantry, background stamp (on the green paper) by All Night Media.
Punches: Martha Stewart  Christmas Branches, Christmas Border , Christmas Corner and snowflake.
Die Cuts: Spellbinders Create a Flake (for the large flower), Wonky Square
Embossing folder -  Swiss Dots

OK, the gremlins are about and causing mischief today. Twice the post  disappeared while I was working on it and I had to re do the whole post. ???  I started out a happy poster full of good cheer
which befits a Christmas card maker and ended up an old shrew , screeching  'what the heck' . Oh well all seems to be going OK now so I am back full of good cheer-lol.
