Christmas Kickstart Challenge # 62 - Mini-Slimline

 

This month at Christmas Kickstart I'm delighted to be joined by my friend Arlene from A Bit of This and That!                             

Arlene has guested before at Christmas Kickstart and she's chosen another fun theme of 'Mini-Slimline' for us to play with!
 

You can see what Arlene made for this challenge by heading over to Christmas Kickstart by clicking here. This isn't a format I'd tried before and so Arlene kindly sent me some slimline die cuts to get me started. Thanks so much, Arlene, you're a star!

The slimline sizing was just perfect to make this simple little card using am image and sentiment from Colorado Craft Company called Christmas Tree Cat



For my next card I thought I'd try a landscape slimline. I'm not sure I quite nailed the design with this one, but the little mouse from Art Impressions makes me smile.


I hope you come and join Arlene and me over at Christmas Kickstart

That cat might make it to the top. Love that cute card.

That is one cute mouse and I never knew that one day of coal is worth 264 days of fun - very cute!
