Welcome back for day 2 of the October Release Previews at C.C. Designs!

     

         

As you can see from the banner, we are featuring the HILARIOUS new Roberto's Rascals today!

     

I thought that Henry and Twila were fun to create with, but this Grouchy Kitty totally cracks me up! His name is Grouchy Claus, and he doesn't look too thrilled with being all decked out for Christmas, does he?! I thought he paired up perfectly with this sentiment from the AmyR Snarky Christmas set. I layered two cuts from the C.C. Cutters Baggie and Tag Die, and tied them on with Bakers Twine, and the patterned paper is from the Doodlebug Santa Express 6x6 pad (I'm LOVING this cute pad!!).

I have been a bit under the weather, and yesterday was the first day I sat at my craft desk in over a week! I am feeling a bit rusty with my coloring, so go easy on me!

  

Today is the first day of October Release Previews at C.C. Designs, and there are LOADS of cute images to show you!

    

         

      I've used the adorable new Meoples Little Elf... if you were a fan of the Meoples before, you might notice she got a little makeover... she was so fun to color, and those big eyes are just the cutest! I paired her with one of the new AmyR Sentiment Sets being released this month - Snarky Christmas. The bright polka-dotty papers are from the Doodlebug Santa Express 6x6 pad.
