Pink Baubles and Cats

 Morning and 1st of December can you believe-my DT post today is for the

"Non-Traditional Christmas Colours" challenge at Scrapping4fun, and this was another card using a technique from Tracy Evans. I die-cut a circle out of cardstock and used it like a stencil with distress inks.All stamps are from Pink Frog and Stampin up, Die-cut cats were from a set I bought on a FB decluttering page so no idea of the make-sorry.
