MERRY AND BRIGHT

Hi, There!

Just had to use this stamp before time ran out for making my cards.  My sister loves mice so this was an easy peasy card to make for her.  Non-traditional Christmas colors - BUT - I did color one more in the red and green just have to design the card around it - that always takes me the longest to complete.  We have lots of snow here so far - hubby is cooking chili - great for a cold winter night!!!

Until next post, stay warm, safe if you are driving in the white stuff, hugs and blessings ~ CaroleAnn

Card Recipe:
Stamping Bella image/Polar Bear & Mousie and colored with Copic Markers.

Papers are from my fave UK Cardcrafting Magazine - they always have a freebie attached to the magazine and this time it was a stamp set, embossing folder (which I used at the bottom of my card), a set of foil cardstock in beautiful colors, and another attachment of KaiserCraft Christmas Wishes paper set!!!!  Just beautiful!!!!  

So the label is from the KaiserCraft set which is mounted with 3D foam to a die cut tag from Hero Arts.   I applied Stardust glitter to Mousie's hat, Wink of Stella on their hats and scarves.  

Diecuts from Hero Arts - tag, Snowflake from Sweet Dixie, Rhinestones and ribbon from my stash.  Snowflakes were colored with Distress Inks.

  1. So stinkin' cute! The bear and mousie are so sweet cuddling together and I love the old fashioned baubles on the tag. Sending warm hugs!

  2. No snow in our part of the country (AZ) but the wind is really blowing this morning - guess it will test the sturdiness of the little nativity scene our son help set up in our yard!
    Pretty color choices for this card. Thanks for joining us in the QKR Stampede challenge this week - anything goes with the option of non-traditional Christmas colors. Dorothy S, DT member
