Shhhh...

Hello fellow crafters, and welcome to my newest follower, Alison.

Can you believe it is only just over a week until the big day!
My card tonight uses one of the first rubber stamps I bought, more years ago than I can remember. 
Isn't this the sweetest little mouse you've ever seen? Even if you have a phobia about mice, I don't think you could be scared of him. Unfortunately the 3D Glossy Accent on the berries does not show up.
A close-up of the poinsettia, holly and conifer leaves, cut from white cardstock and silver gift wrap. 
Inside the card, decorated to match the front.

I would like to enter the following challenges -
Inky Impressions #89 - 'Use Something Old' (Stamp, Lace, Peel-off Sticker)
Paper Craft Junkies #6 - 'Bingo Board' (Flowers/Die Cuts/Glitter'
Nutcrafters #33 - 'Lots of Layers and Sparkle/Bling'
Christmas at Sweet Stampin' #1 - 'Anything Goes'
Holly Jolly Christmas - 'Metallic Christmas'
Charisma Cardz #49 - 'Christmas Makes'
Songbird #10 - 'Christmas'

Image - Stamp-it  'Merry Chrismouse'
Colouring - Promarkers
Paper - Kaisercraft Mint Twist Collection - 'Trimmings'
Dies - Spellbinders 'Floral Doily Motifs', 'Poinsettia', 'Floral Ovals', 'Snowflakes'; Cheery Lynn 'Wreath Strip', 'Holly Leaves'.
Lace, gems, Stickles, peel-off greetings sticker, all from my junk stash.

I'm off to wrap some pressies I bought for John yesterday, then I will try to get some sleep. It has been dreadfully hot here today (still is), and 'they' have predicted 38 C for us tomorrow.

Happy crafting and thank you for visiting
Hugs,
Jennifer. x

    Aww Jennifer this mouse is totally adorable and so beautifully coloured, and your poinsetta and leaves are so pretty. It's amazing that you can have 38 C over there and we have -3 C here ... in fact on Thursday it went down to -4 C and my car door locks were frozen!! Luckily the weather now has turned a bit milder though vbry wet, and I fear part of the UK are in for more flooding!
