This card is for a MM teapot challenge. Depicted here are Itty, Bitty, and Tiny Rodent. Mama Rodent has sent them out to play in the snow, but now it's time to warm up. They are having a tea party and inviting all the neighbors over. What better way to warm up than a nice hot cup of tea and getting cozy in front of a great big roaring....light bulb! Oh well, you use what you've got, right? Anyway, hope your holiday is filled with the warmth of close family and dear friends.

Barbara, I love this image. Those mice are adorable aren't they. WOW, Love your story because that's the kind of Mama Rodent is, one that will let her children play and then warm them up, and wouldn't even think about putting them in front of a fireplace now would we. LOL
This card made me go "Awww, and oooh" all the while I was reading your description and glancing at your smart colouring. Beautiful work.
Now, the party is getting alot busier, better watch out for thee is an elephant coming through the back door, not because it's bad, but because it is quite big. LOL
Thanks for coming and have yourself a merry little christmas too! hugsxo

Aw, don't they look so sweet warming themselves round the Christmas light. And just look at the sweet little baby one...
I like your little poinsettia corners.

This is so cute! Love the sweet little image and your great coloring! Mama Rodent must be wondering where these three are! They look to be having fun on their own!

How sweet. Three little mice warming up by the tiny light bulb. Reminds me of one cold winter night that I was out shoveling sidewalks for a job. I stopped by a flood light to warm my hands. Those little mice are mighty smart! Love your card. TFS :0)
