I'm off shortly to go out to the orchard to get some apples and squash, then going to make a pot of apple squash soup, I've had it before and it is delicious, yum, yum!
Okay so on to my card. I have fallen in love with a new line of stamps - Wild Rose Studio. They have the most 'cutest' images ever. I couldn't resist a few and this is one of them: Mouse and Poinsettia.
I coloured the image using prismacolour pencils. Used a MFT die to cut out the image, left the die in place then sponged some light pink ink around the edges.
Designer paper is by Wild Rose Studio - Painted Poinsettias. I layered a die cut using the same papers to lay in behind the image.
To finish off I added some white flock to the mouse's hat, gold glitter to the centers of the poinsettia's, as well as a couple of Stamping Bella 'glitter dots' in the corner.
I just finished my cards for the October Dirty Dozen theme last night, so now I can concentrate on doing some more Christmas cards over the next couple of weeks.

Stamp - Wild Rose Studio - Mouse and Poinsettia

I, too, have fallen in love with Wild Rose Studio stamps. I have one I need to get colored up, but it's not a Christmas stamp. This little mouse is adorable and so SWEET! Love the paper, too. You rock those Prismacolor pencils and are quite an inspiration to me. Love how you flocked the hat and used gold glitter in the poinsettia centers. It was quite warm here today and I worked in the garden ALL DAY. Fell asleep on the couch after and woke up with Wally snuggled up and Rich bringing me clam chowder. Your soup from garden bounty sounds delish! I love trying new soup recipes.
I don't have any WR stamps but I have always thought they were so cute. You picked an adorable one and those papers are yummy too. What a way to kick off your stash! Hugs!
