Take one very small mouse…….

Hi all. I am back once again with a Christmassy theme today. To be honest, I couldn't wait to show you what could be achieved with one of those little'incidental' stamps that you often get on stamp sheets.

On this occasion I was stamping a larger house mouse image and this little guy was one of the additional stamps. He is only a few centimetres tall but so darn cute that I just had to stamp and colour him. The question was…what to do with him????


So i had the idea of placing him inside a wreath……cue one of my favourite dies at the moment…the Tonic Christmas Wreath die. I love this one because you can cut it twice, layer in and add berries with pearl drops…..ad that's exactly what I did.


My little mouse fitted perfectly in to the wreath and hey presto, one very cute card.

So it's time for my little guy to start his travels around blog world, so here are some challenges to enter:
