Not TTC Related - Pet Photos for Christmas Cards

Amy&Steve0421

So - we want to do a Christmas card w/a picture of our cat - who we think is really adorable:)

I'm trying to come up w/ideas.  One year we did him w/a santa hat.  I was thinking of trying to get him lying on a stocking or his head peaking out of a Christmas gift bag.  Both those things I think he would do naturally.  But would you be able to tell it was a stocking w/him lying on it?  What do you think?  Any other creative ideas?  Anyone have an inspirational pet Christmas card to share?

Maybe use Christmas lights? I've seen some Nest siggies with babies and Christmas lights. My IL's cat loves sitting in a pile of holly garland while the tree is being decorated.?

I've seen some nest siggies with their cat with colored Christmas lights.  the kitties were batting the lights, very cute.

I saw where someone had their dogs eyeing the stockings on the mantle.  It was really cute and funny.  She said they put bacon by the stockings to get the dogs to perform.

Oh!  I like that idea!  Some catnip should work...

I took pics of the animals separately and then used photoshop to doctor them like they were all in snowbanks. I'll try and find the jpeg to pip.
