Not a creature was stirring....

not even mouse.  A perfect Christmas poem for my image today.  

But I can tell you what is stirring and that is Hurricane Sandy! Wow she can throw one heck of a storm.  We are feeling the high winds and rain  that are coming off of the Great Lakes.  Just a wicked storm.  Tomorrow (tuesday) is suppose to be worse than today if that is possible! Please keep all those who are affected by Sandy in your thoughts and prayers.

The image I'm using  is called Not Even a Mouse a Mo Manning image in rubber by Stamping Bella.
This is such an adorable image.

I stamped the image on bella's bestest paper using black memento.   I used prismacolour pencils and gamsol to colour this.  Used a circle s/b die, left the die in place and then sponged some versamagic pixie pink around the image, then layered this onto a piece of white c/s cut from S/B Exquisite circles (using the largest die of this set). 

The designer paper in the background was just a freebie piece I received from a stamp store I recently visited.  It seemed to work perfectly with my image.

Finished up with some stitching, glitter, mini white pearls, polkadot chiffon ribbon and a wooden snowflake from Studio Calico.
