Welcome back to the THIRD day of Newton's Nook Designs' Holiday Release Reveals! Today's set is going to thrill all you Newton & kitty lovers out there - introducing Newton's Christmas Cuddles AND the matching dies too!
I have a confession - I have a LOT of designer paper, more than I could probably use in a lifetime, so I am trying to make more of an effort to use more of it rather than hoarding it. So the 'technique' I invoked for today's card I call 'making your patterned paper work for you' where you find papers that matches your stamps in fun ways. Here I used another slice from a Recollections holiday stack. I thought about the display windows and decorations that they set up in the middle of shopping malls and when I saw the bottom border of this sheet of cardstock I envisioned a display of BIG presents or maybe presents lined up under the tree with Newton peeking out of his gift box hidden among them:
So, are you like me? Do you have a lot of patterned paper stashed away? More than you can use? Or am I the only one?

Like your suggestions to use the gift box all year long.
Most of the stamp set could probably be used that way.
All of the boxes make a great background.

Amazing! I totally understand the hoarding of patterned paper...
But this card is so perfect! Love your scene!

CAT LOVERS HOP coming up Oct. 26-30 at HerPeacefulGarden.blogspot.com!!!
Love those huge gifts behind the cat peeking out from inside a box....
I know how you feel - I have a TON of designer paper as well- and I keep buying more because it's so CUTE and fun!! I love how you used this to add layers of gifts to the card - the larger than life presents in the back make such a fun backdrop to the kitty and his gifts in front!!

The oversized parents are such a great accent for Newton tucked inside his box! Wonderful design!
Love your really big presents! I wonder what could be ready to pop out of them...an elephant! Fabulous card!
What a great way to use up patterned paper scraps and NOT waste them. (I am ALL about that!) Your card is adorable, I really love this set!
Super cute card! Love the fun design!
