Festive Fun Kit and Clowder Colouring Class for MLCCB #37 Merry Little Christmas Challenge Blog in August 2021

 For my August challenge with Merry Little Christmas Challenge Blog I chose to finish some Christmas colouring from the wonderful Alyce at Kit and Clowder and make it into a card. 

Here is my card for this month:

This Kit and Clowder colouring class is called Festive Fun from October 2019 and uses a cute image from Lili of the Valley. The image with the class included the background, but you can buy just the characters: Jack, Patch and Puss with a Top Hat. As I write this, I realise that I have not coloured the snowman arms! I will update with another image later today.

  

Once I finished colouring, I trimmed the image and adhered it to a white card from Envelope Solutions.

We have had some crazy weather here, so it has been good sitting in front of the fire and tv, watching videos and colouring with Alyce! :)

I actually started this class a while ago and don't think I took photos at every stage, but here are some progression shots and then another image of the card (still need to do the snowman arms!):
