Old-fashioned Christmas and a farewell

Two days ago, we had to say goodbye to our beloved 15-year old male cat, Rolmops. When he was a small and chubby kitten – and about the same age as the queen of our household, Kokkini, who was born in our home – he would roll over in front of our feet while we were walking on the street, showing us how cute he was and telling us he was ready to be adopted. It wasn't until our 2 Dutch cats passed a few months later that he finally got his wish. We miss him but know he is happy and free now, and without any pain.


On a happier note, I have another Christmas card to share. I coloured in this Santa image (NBUS Crafter's Companion, Believe in the magic) using Copics, die cut the panel with a SSS stitched rectangle and adhered it to my card base (Schoolhouse red, SSS).


I'm linking up my card at:
