Inspiration: Mojo Monday #178
I went back to the Christmas Mice I had previously colored and not used on my other card, and I used the Mad 4 Plaid Christmas collection from Photoplay again, since the images had been colored to match it. Basing my design on an old Mojo Monday sketch, I created this design.
I recently took inventory of everything I had in my craft room and went through items to do a destash. That included my embossing folders. Some I was sure I wanted to give away, but for the ones I was unsure of, I cut white cardstock and run it through my embossing folders to decide. I ended up with a pile of embossed paper, which I put aside so that I could use it on my projects when I craft. Here, I figured the mice would stand out better against cardstock than patterned paper, so I looked through the pile and picked the one with stars in the background.
For the sentiment, because my cardstock was already embossed, it would have been hard to stamp something, so I stamped my sentiment on a white cardstock scrap and bubble cut it, popping it on Mini Stampin' Dimensionals.
