Blue Christmas Kitten

I love blue, and it is an ideal colour for an icy Christmas card.  I've coloured the image and added some glitter to the holly and shaddow, and matted it onto dark blue card.  I've used blue snowflake paper and glittered blue card for the background blocks, both matted onto the same dark blue card.  I've added some baby blue ribbon at the bottom and some darker blue at the top, and topped it off with some blue flowers that I've also glittered, all layered onto Snow text blue paper.

Here's a close up of the image


I've used inspiration from the following:
Happy crafting
