TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS

Good Evening!
No bowling tonight! The other team couldn't raise a team because of holidays.
So we will be playing one Wednesday in the middle of August instead.. So time to play.
Every time there's a Challenge at Holly Jolly Christmas/House Mouse and Friends  I always try to enter, this week card fits both!!




I've used a Impression Obsession 'Cover a Card' stamp called Bubbles for the background..Stamped with VersaMark and WOW Sparkling Snow Embossing Glitter.. The House Mouse is a Stamp from 'Christmas Fireplace'. Coloured with Copics and Lots of Glitter on their little hats...I've covered the image with Acetate and used Gelly Roll pen for the 'snow'.... I mean there's no way they'd lie there if you are about. So I made it to peek in at them  lol...Ribbon from stash..Spellbinder/Go Kreate dies used.. The sentiment is recycled  from a last year's  Christmas card .



Challenges entering...

House-Mouse & Friends ~ House-Mouse and a Friend

How snug they look in their little sleeping bag hats, with the fire blazing away in the background (a little concerned for Santa here!)
