I was looking after my grandaughter, Nico, yesterday morning. She wanted to make a card for her Daddy and Mommy. Nico picked out the adorable House Mouse stamp "Sweet Music" to make her card with and the pretty blue and red sparkly snowflake paper. She coloured most of the image herself # I coloured the mouses hair and skin#. She cut out the images and matting with the cuttlebug and dies #she said she wants to marry my cuttlebug -- too cute# She sewed around the edges on the base card and image panel. She spotted the snowflake stickers on my craft table ---and wanted some on her card. We added the red gem to the center of the snowflake.
For the ornament - die cut two scalloped circles, one in white for the back and one in red for the front. Attached the snowflake embellishment with the pretty red pearl brad - throught the red circle.
Stamped the sentiment on the white circle. Nico - signed the back of the ornament. Glued the white circle to the red. She added red sparkly dots to the the scalloped edging.
Thanks for looking,
Hugs..Pat
