I almost forgot to make DH his card from the kitties!
The SSS present was stamped on the card base, and again on another piece of white cs and two scraps of Christmas cs. I masked the one on the card base and stamped the Inkadinkado tree after masking the star and inking with green ink. Then I masked the tree, inked the star and stamped again. My new MISTI tool made it easy - I'll add a link below in case you're not familiar with it. I LOVE it! The sentiment was stamped in VersaMark and embossed with Ranger (Real Red?) ep.
The kitty on the second piece of white cs was colored with Spectrum Noir markers and all the pieces of the present fussy cut and glued into place.I had a slight halo from masking, so I used Prismacolor pencils to fill in the gaps and provide grounding for the scene. I never know what to do there!Finished up by decorating the tree with Gelly Roll Stardust pens.
As always, thanks for looking!

What a super cute card! I love the way you coloured your kitty; does it look like one of yours in real lift? Your paper piecing in fabulous. That is one of my favourite techniques. What a super card for any pet lover to receive and extra special for your DH I bet!
