HMF #132 50 days till Christmas

Welcome to House Mouse and Friends Blog Challenge #132. Can you believe it is only 50 days till Christmas? Our host this week is Sue D.  We have 2 Sponsors this challenge: Simon Says Stamp with a $25 Gift Certificate to Simon Says Stamp Store and  Sweet Stamps Store with  a $10 Gift Certificate to Sweet Stamp Store. Our Challenge: Only 50 Days til Christmas! "Get ready for Christmas" You know, the cooking, baking, wrapping, shopping and trimming all wrapped up and ready to surprise everyone Christmas morning. Hope you can play along with us.
These totally fun mice called Foot Loose and Fancy Tree decorating are perfect. My creations are also for the Dirty Dozen Christmas Challenge MIM aka More is More. You make two versions of the same card one fairly simple and one all glammed up. If you create something use the keyword SCSCCNOV12 so we can find your creations. I stamped them both out onto classic white cardstock using memento tuxedo black ink. Colored both of them with various copics. For my MIM version I added Spellbinders romantic rectangles and ovals for the layered frames. Added brads to the corners, crochet lace under the sheer ribbon layer and added stickles to both versions. I do like how these turned out! Thanks for stopping by and happy stamping today!

A House Mouse, glammed up or not just makes a card. Love these fellas as they decorate, looks like my house some years. Partial to the top one only because of all the red, I like red.

Stacy, I do love a two-fer! Both cards are wonderful. Love the stamp you chose. The glamed up version is so pretty with all the red, but the CAS version is great fun too.

Hugs
Sue
