The August Challenge at Christmas at Sweet Stampin' is up and running...only 4 more to go this year! As always, the theme is " anything goes as long as it's Christmas related".
I've had a massive tidy up and clear out of my craft room over the last couple of weeks...my husband made me some new storage as he was fed up climbing over stuff to get to his computer, 'my' craft room is meant to be shared space but one of is a bit selfish and takes over. It is lovely and tidy now, I can see floor and desk .... and I have rediscovered lots of neglected stamps like this little House Mouse hanging from the holly. So cute and fun to colour with my trusty Copics, die cut into a circle and matted onto red and gold circles. I added a stamped sentiment and some tiny die cut holly leaves and doodled stitching around the edge.
Inside the card is another cute mouse, sporting his Santa hat, with a stamped sentiment and holly sprig.
Do, please, take the time to hop over to Sweet Stampin' Christmas Challenge Blog and see the beautiful creations from my lovely teamies....and we'd love to see your fabulous festive projects too, so why not join us this month.
Thanks for visiting!
Chris

Adorable card Chris, you know you can still enter this at HM challenge as we do accept anything goes.xx [aNNie]
So, so cute! Love the wee mouse on the inside of the card and the expression on their wee faces is adorable. Hope all is well xx
Hi Chris,
oh I love this wonderful Christmas card.
The design is ace, and that mouse stamped image is so sweet and gorgeous.
I am lucky as I don't have to sahre my craft space as hubby has a shed in the garden for his hobbies, and he has just had a shed extension too.
He is ham radio enthusiast, and loves to mend old clocks too.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
What a fabulous card, wonderful design and a gorgeous image, love the little mouse on the inside too. Also lovely papers.
