Whoo! Hoo! It's been WAY too long since I've had a chance to play in the PTI Blog Hop!
So HAPPY to be here!
The Challenge - use these non-traditional colors to make a Holiday card:
Here's MY card:
I just received my NEW PTI Layered Postmarks Holiday stamps and dies
so of course I HAD to use them!
My sentiment is from an oldie but goodie PTI Stamp Set - Take Three Winter.
Let me know what you think of my card!
Here's a photo I HAD to share of one of my LONG LONG hair rescue kitties after we had her shaved like a lion. Here she is chillin' on the granite at the back of our tub. She looked at me as if to ask WHY I was bothering her while she was taking a nap!
She may look funny to some of you but all I can say is, "WAY less hairballs!!! LOL!"
Have FUN Hopping!

Love the layers and accents you chose. Great sentiment too.
Have a black kitty too. She's watching me type!
Love the stamped tree! Beautiful card and colors Sue! Looks like a cool spot to hang out !
What a beautiful take on the colour scheme - love that you've kept it light and airy!
Love that stamp, the color challenge you chose and how you used the colors, the lovely doily and flower! TFS!
Love the kitty picture! I think she looks lovely as a black lion! I'm sure she's happier lion with you not having to vacuum quite so often, if she's like most cats!
P.S. Love how you set up your card for the picture, too!!!!
Beautiful card Sue, the doily is so pretty and the new Postmarks tree is gorgeous!
A tree topped by a rose! Now that's my kind of tree! Lovely card Sue. I also am thoroughly enjoying the layered doilies. Tres chic!
Btw... Cat too cute! And way less hair balls to boot. Genius!
Absolutely gorgeous Sue! I love the tree, and the beautiful colours! A stunning Christmas card! Xx
LOVE your little tree Sue and the doily looks so pretty here. She does look like a lion! Our neighbor cuts their labradoodle (sp?) with a mow-hawk...talk about FUNNY!!!
So very, very pretty! Love the details you've added! And your kitty does look like a lion- less hairballs, AND less hair 'bunnies' on the floor, I bet!!
So pretty Sue! Love the beautiful Christmas tree and the layered doilies! Your cat looks beautiful! :)
Beautiful combination of elements.
Love the colors and wonderful card! Kitty is sweet!
Your card is beautiful, Sue. ;-) I really like the grid lines beneath the dainty doilies, and that tree is super cool. I love the little flower at the top. Beautiful job. ;-)
Very pretty.
Love the layers - your card has a very peaceful feel to it!
very pretty, Sue!!
Super layering of different colours and elements. So pretty!
Sue, this is amazing! Wow, what a gorgeous combo of twine and papers. I love it~
Love the sweet flower as your tree topper. It has been some time since I have played along too.
Your cat is hilarious! I have a long haired Maine Coon and wanted to take her and have the lion cut as well, but there wasn't anyone local that did cats. I bet that granite was nice and cool...mine likes to lay on anything cool.
Oh, how pretty Sue Lelli. The colors look awesome. Love the tree stamped with the postmark image... also like the layered doilies.
Just lovely Sue, I wasn't game to go with that colour scheme, but you have done a great job.
Love the photo of your cat - we used to have a long haired cat - and keeping him neat and tidy was a massive job.
Gorgeous card Sue...i love the text!
Terrific use of the non-traditional holiday challenge colors, Sue. Those look like they would be hard to use, but I think you NAILED them!!
Great layering, and use of the colors! I couldn't wrap my head around that palette! Love what you did -- and your kitty is super cute...short hair or long! :)
I think I fell off my chair when I saw you posted! :-) Big grins!
I love love this Sue! The colors are beautiful, but I expect nothing less from you! Love your new goodies!
Cute Cute photo! Hairballs=gross! nuff said!
Hugs!
LOVE ♥♥♥♥ This card!! The colours are stunning and I adore that stamp ... (If only the postage and the duty was not so expensive here!!) ... Love your cat too ... My Aunt has a long haired cat and she just looks like an owl when she opens her eyes ... Eyes closed and I don't know one end from the other!
Beautiful soft colors for a Christmas card! The tree with text with doily behind it is so pretty! That looks like one gorgeous cat! I'm sure she'll be happier with less fur balls! We used to have a black cat. Such a good hunter he was! Now we have a big German Shepherd and we know all too well about all the fur!:-) Take care, hugs!
Oh Sue this is so pretty! Those colours although maybe not traditional, look absolutely stunning! I love your layout and the gems rock, I adore the random gem look. I always try it, but never seem to pull it off lol! I must try and remember this colour theme and have a bash at it.
Also a huge thanks for not only your lovely as ever comments but for the beautiful card I recieved. I've been away but will catch up soon.
Hugs, Katie xx
This is a gorgeous card - I really like these colours, very cool, very fresh. The stitched detail and pretty tree are just super.
Love, love the photo of your cat!
I adore that stamped tree! And as usual your card is just so lovely! Pretty awesome fluffy faced kitty too!
Beautiful Sue!! I love your layered doilies. And the tiny little detail of tying the ends of your twine in knots actually adds so much! I hope you're well! :)
This is so very pretty.
Lovely card. So beautifully put together.
Love what you did with the colors! Wonderful card. Allergic to cats. LOLOLOL ;-)
What a beautiful Christmas card! I just received this same stamp set this week and hope to play with it soon! Gorgeous card! And I love the picture of your kitty! :)
Lovely card--incredible stitching!
Love that card, and each detail you put into it, but the kitty picture makes me smile even bigger! Love that you shaved her,too. Bet she was loving that (roll eyes) - LOL!
What a fun, non-traditional-colors Christmas card, Sue -- LOVE those tones and with a flat tree topper, these would be perfect to mail in multiples!!!
