Number 20!


Hello and happy weekend! Sharing a Christmas card today...this is number 20 so far this year...which is definitely a record for me! I was determined not to have a last minute panic...still loads to go but at least I feel as if I've tried :)
The image is a cute little House Mouse stamp which I've coloured with copics, papers from a pad which was a gift from my lovely sister. The dark red paper is embossed with stars, don't know the make of the e.f. Die cuts are Sizzix Tim Holtz. The tiny stars are mdf. It was a quick and easy make!
Thanks for calling by today, hope you're enjoying the weekend!

Your House mouse image is a sweetie and I love the corrugated cardboard behind it. That star theme is nicely repeated throughout your card, It looks great!

SOOOOO CUTE, Chris! I love your little house mouse guy, all sweet and festive. Your card is lovely, especially with the vintage feel, and wonderful traditional colors. It reminds me of "Americana" themes, that I am sure were world wide at the time. Gorgeous card! xx
