Mice Christmas

Hello,welcome to my blog. Wednesday already! I have had the week off work this week and have been trying to get ahead with DT projects and little makes for my son's school Christmas fayre. Will start sharing  these over the next few days.

I wanted to make a card for a  challenge this morning as it seems forever since I played in any! One of my favourite challenge blogs is over at BBTB2 and their challenge this week is Meow - Mouse Challenge. I don't have that cartridge so I used Winter Frolic for my mouse. Now this card just appeals to my sense of humour!:)

Love the look on Fluffy's face!!

Fluffy is flocked with grey,black and pink and was inked and penned before  the flock was applied.

Lots of ink and dimension.

I am also entering this over at Whimsical Wednesdays challenge which is to add texture.Lots of glitter paper,enamel and glossy accents,ribbon,twine and not to mention flock!

I used all scraps for this card.Winter Frolic for mouse,Paper Dolls Dress Up for cat and Wild Card for circle card.

My creative time for sentiment.

Thanks for stopping by.Would just like to wish all my Friends who celebrate Thanksgiving a Very Happy One.

Hugs
