Jingle All The Way Card

I'm currently working on holiday (mostly Christmas) cards, and I'm also playing along with the Simon Says Stamp "Anything Goes" Wednesday Challenge. This one is a little cheekier card than I normally make, but it's for someone specific (my uncle, who loves this type of humor).

This is a slimline (3.5" x 8.5") card. I stamped two cats and a bird from the Tim Holtz Snarky Cat Christmas Stamptember 2020 set (retired) and Snarky Cat Christmas set, using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink on Copic XPress-It Blending Card. I colored them with Copics, then used my Scan 'n Cut to cut them out. (I was NOT fussy cutting those tassels.)

I cut a 3.25" x 8.25" white panel and used Distress Oxide Speckled Egg Ink and the My Favorite Things Mini Cloud Edges stencil to create the clouds. I cut a same-size panel of very sparkly, white glitter paper and then used the Lawn Fawn Stitched Hillside Borders die set to cut the snowy slopes. I glued the sloped pieces to the cloud panel using double-sided Scor-Tape.

I stamped the sentiment ("Jingler" by Impression Obsession) with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink on white cardstock, then carefully trimmed it with my Cutterpillar. I used some jingle-bell brads from Hobby Lobby to give each cat a jingle bell (poking a small hole first, then putting the brad in). Finally, I attached everything to the card base: red cardstock base, cloud panel, sparkle snow layers, cats/bird and sentiment. I popped up the sentiments and grouchy cat for a little dimension.
