A Christmas cat sitting beneath a wondrous star.The cat is sitting in some new fallen snow and the card itself was painted
with a glaze of silver and light blue watercolor mixed with Schmincke Aqua Shine....which unfortunately, does not show up too well on photos. Aqua Shine can be mixed with any color watercolor and gives you an instant ice-like shine without being gaudy or over the top.

Hi Cynthia! I love this Christmas Kitty, thank you for being my 400th follower :)
Best wishes,

Nice- I like that your blog has different forms of expression, collage, painting - nice work -
The Christmas Kitty looks like he is wishing upon a star! Love the Merry Kittymas. The product that you used to give a soft ice shine, I have to look for. What a brilliant idea! Have a wonderful day!
This card is such fun! Love it and I bet it looks gorgeous with the icy sheen on it. Must try to get some of that - will make a note of its name. Lovely, fun image and words.
Adorable, Cynnie! What a great card! Hugs, Terri xoxox
Oh, I love the kitty, this is such a good interpretation of the topic, love it :)
Lovely Christmas Card, Cynnie!!
Aqua Shine:I have to keep it in mind!
so beautifull, nice!!
Boah das sieht klasse aus.
Wunderschönes Kärtchen.
I have this card and it is just beautiful. Quietly elegant on lovely paper and the sheen really is visible. Beautiful Christmas Card Cynnie!

It makes me think of an Egyptian pyramid in the sun. Okay, maybe that's just me because the weather has been cold and dreary where I live and it's kind of a nice thought for Kittymas, or maybe I'm thinking of the wise men traveling through the desert to Bethlehem? The cat looks kind of statuesque. I like the feathery edging too.
(My first reply 'poofed' into cyberspace!) As I was saying: "There you go, girl! Simplicity and taste, with a little shine!"
Hi Cynnie,
What a beautiful piece!
Thanks for your comment earlier I am glad I made you smile!
I was looking through your blog and I really love your autumn leaves!

The Christmas-kitty is darling! I know it will be a hit with all cat-lovers. You should think about selling them on Etsy...
Thanks for your kind comment on my blog.
Have a great day!
I just love this card! It captures my favorite feelings of Christmas- quiet, magical and beautiful.
Lovely and grand idea! Great colors!
This is simply wonderful. Lynne x
I'm a mad cat lover and this card is just stunningly gorgeous in it's simplicity.
Sooo cute!
Did you use a stamp for the cat and star...
