2015 Christmas Card #14

Happy Saturday everybody!

Today is the start of a week long Christmas in July challenge over at Catch the Bug!
Everybody has the possibility to  win daily prizes, and those of you who choose to participate in all the challenges this week is in the chance of winning the Grand Prize:
1st - 7 free images for 6 months and 4 month Guest DT spot
2nd - $50 gift card and 2 month Guest DT spot
3rd - $25 gift card and 1 month Guest DT spot

For day 1 we have the theme of "JINGLE ALL THE WAY".

I chose to play with Christmas Mouse - ornaments. I colored the image using Promarkers and a silver gel pen. The image is cut with a die from Lawnfawn. For the banner I used a Dienamics die and a sentiment that came free with a magazine. The die cut background is made with a die from Poppy and silver mirri card, and I attached it to the silver card base. I also used a snowflake die and 2 pearls.
No DPs used, which is a rarity for me.



I'd like to enter my card in these challenges as well:
1) Tuesday Throwdown - #252 No Patterned Paper
2) Fab 'n' Funky - #267 Inspired By A Song (Jingle bells)
3) Inky Impressions - #217 2 or More Die Cuts
4) Crafting from the Heart - Always Anything Goes

    Your cards are always very elegant also without dp, Pia! This background is stunning with the gorgous graticulate on the silver mirri cardstock. Cute image and pretty details with the two snowflakes!

    I'm really loving these simple colours that you've been using on your Christmas cards - mostly neutral with little burst of colour! This combo really compliments the mouse.... and look at the bell on his tail! Too cute!
