Phew I was really cutting it fine this year - so glad I have finished and next year I am going to be far more organised. Hopefully running the
Bah! Humbug! Christmas challenge site will help - I certainly hope so. If you haven't had a look at that yet please do. We've got 25 followers already - I'm so giddy with the excitement. It's going to be so much fun.
This is the House Mouse stamp that Laura bought me to make Christmas cards for her to give to special people. I love the stamp - it's so cute, but oh my did it take some time to colour!? Each of the beads needed hightlighting and then just when I thought I'd finished I'd find a bit of mouse that I'd missed. Great fun especially when you're in a hurry!
I used Promarkers to colour the images and then matted and layed on to my papers. I really don't know who the papers are by as they were sent to me by a blogging friend and I've used them so often. Thank you Elaine if you see this - I just love these papers - the colours are scrummy.
Both my cards fit the challenges at...
Now entering the following challenge is a little cheeky - well more that a bit, but I have missed out on the last two challenges at
Rainbow Lady's Challenge blog so I'm hoping I can get away with this...
Cynthia's current challenge is to use an image of
a stag or other large animal on your card! Hmmmmm mice - well House Mice are very big news in the stamping world and size is only relative after all. If you were knee high to a grass hopper a mouse could seem huge.
Hmmmmmmm will I get away with that? Is Christmas hysteria setting in big time - I think it maybe!
Have a good day everyone.
