This is my card I created for the challenge using 
using the bendy fold



 I just love this kitties image. It will makes such a cute Christmas card for one of my grandchildren. To make the card I followed one of the you tube videos and adjusted the size to accommodate my design. 

The images were coloured with Copics, pencil crayon, gel pen, and Wink of Stella.  I used scraps from my Christmas designer papers for the card also and a Christmas tree and stars die cut for the trees.

Hope you will join our Christmas in July challenge this month. check out our challenge blog to be inspired by our talented design team. Have a creative week.  Thank you for stopping by.
