Snarky cats - birthday and Christmas

I've got two cards to show today. Both feature cats from Tim Holtz' "snarky cats" set. For both cards I used a stencil, also Tim Holtz, and Nuvo expanding mousse, in gold and in silver.

1) BIRTHDAY CARD
I placed the cat on a die cut frame from Altenew, made of black paper covered with Altenew Enchanted gold ink. I spritzed with Sangria Art Anthology mist . The pen is an older stamp, the sentiment came with the cat set. The ink splatters are made with stamps from Lawn Fawn.
This card is also for:

Show us Your Pussies - Furrything Goes

2) CHRISTMAS CARD
Here I got to use some items from my stash of leftover/ready made pieces. I gave the cat a chipboard Santa's hat. The pencil is part of the same stamp as the pen on the card above. I love this cat, look at his eyes - I think the sentiment is right for him, lol.
