Never Too Cute.

 Hello everyone: I'm praying that you and your families are doing well in these difficult times. I'm also praying for all of the people who are in the path of these horrific fires, some of my friends live in California and Oregon and they tell me that the skies are orange and filled with smoke. I'm praying for your safety and that of all of your loved ones.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I don't know about you guys but, I have enough stamp sets to last me for the rest of my creative life so, I've promised a couple of times not to get any more stamps, no matter how beautiful or cute they are.

Some of you know that I adore the House Mouse siblings and I do have a lot of images of these sweet little critters but, about a month ago I saw a set that just made me go crazy enough to break my promise of not getting new stuff.

I made this card with it, I'm asking you, how can I not get this set??

The name is "Masked Mice"


Isn't this little mousey just so adorable?? 
I just stamped it on Canson Mix Media paper with Memento black ink and, once it was dry, I colored with Prismacolor pencils.
The pattern paper is from my dwindling stash from Lili of the Valley, the other one was stamped with a background stamp from Impression Obsession called Swirl Background
**************************************************
 This is the INSIDE


The sentiment is from the set.

I want to play along with the following challenges.

#323 "Anything Goes" option Christmas.


"Colorful"

Thank you for visiting me today.
I hope you follow the example of this sweet little critter and also, please, wear your masks when going out.

Stay healthy and safe.
XO
Maria.

A reminder of the times, a historical moment in our time for our Country to see such change.

Oh, well, heck... of course you had to have it! There's only so much cute a gal can resist! So adorable, Maria! Gosh, everyone can use a reminder. I can't believe how many people just don't care about others enough to mask up. You did such a beautiful job on this card and I just love it! You know I'm not as good as you about not buying stamps. I've tried, but it doesn't last long. Yesterday I ordered 3 sets from the new Penny Black release. I know! I'm bad!
