Caroling Mice

 Hello and welcome back! Here's today's card:

I'm entering this in the challenges at Cupcake Inspirations and Double Trouble.

I needed a card for my church choir director and this is the perfect stamp set for that! I love these cute singing mice! I stamped the mice and die-cut them using one of the Celebration Labels dies. The lamppost was fussy cut and added. I stamped a couple of the musical notes after doing all of my coloring and ended up with a nasty halo, so I added the tree to cover it up. There are no mistakes in stamping, only opportunities for embellishment and additional elements!

I used a dot of the puff paint on the hat pompoms, but it didn't puff up the way I'd hoped. And you can sort of see the Wink of Stella on the lamppost.

Lots of coloring calls for lots of markers! I think I hit most of the rainbow here.

Thanks for stopping by, and happy stamping!
