Inspiration: Mojo Monday #124
I wanted to use the other images from Christmas Mice I had stamped and colored, so I used the Mad 4 Plaid Christmas papers again to create this new card. I used the top square of the sketch to include my sentiment, which reads, "May this Holiday season be filled with joy." I embossed it with the Cherry Cobbler embossing folder for a bit of shine. I added a little holly image I had stamped and colored from the stamp set.
The gifts behind the mouse is an image I fussy cut from the cut-apart sheet. On a cross-stitched circle, I mounted the gifts with one layer of dimensional adhesive and the mouse with two layers. Underneath, I layered a strip of patterned paper and a strip of gold-foiled washi tape.
For my previous card, I had tried to make my own photo corners with square punches, and the first pair I had done was way too big for my other layout. Here, by trimming it down a bit, I was able to add it to the left rectangle and fill the space out. I added a red button threaded with green twine as well.
I covered the flap of my white envelope with patterned paper to match.
