Happy New Year!  I wanted to share this very sweet birthday card I did for a dear friend that is a cat lover. I used these adorable coordinating cat papers from my favorite scrapbook store in Waxahachie, The Crafty Scrapper.  Then I fussy cut out one of the cute cats and popped her up on the front as well as the sentiment banner.

The inside of this card holds all the magic.  I pulled off one of those extremely difficult Japanese origami pop up kitties from Pinterest that looks like one of her fur babies.

Let me tell you right now.  You need to pack your patience and follow the instructions to the letter in order to make one of these little kitties.  They are time consuming and definitely not something you are going to mass produce but what a special little greeting for someone special in your life.

I hope this inspires you to try something new, look for ideas in new places and get crafting!

Blessings for a fabulous New Year!
