So, I have had this image colored and cut out on my table for about a week now and I thought about using it for Melody's challenge off and on for a few hours thinking to claim it as an M word with No clue for an A... and then I decided (finally) that IF the mouse was an ANGLE then all I needed was another M so, the metal brad was found and the string was tied on to free float like the mouse goofing off has set it tumbling. the G is green ribbon, the E is the embossing folder ( tim holtz) Oh, I also took an antique linen marker to the white space inbetween the colored ribbons on the stamped panel because, the printed plaid has a tan-ish base to it. The photocorners are some of the first ones I ever cut, so they may be a die and are probably a punch but, I don't remember anymore. Thanks for this challenge Melody, & tfl. (This card is in my pile for 2018 and I am claiming it for Oct. as it fits the theme of funny critters)

Oh my goodness this is just too cute and that sentiment well I have a nephew I need to make a special card for that this sentiment needs to go on his card. I just learned in the last 5 minutes that he had a cast put on yesterday and could not sleep so he cut it off last night. Yep he needs this on his card! So cute!

Adorable! Great job with the challenge. Loved your backstory on how your card was created. We do go through a process on these challenges. It is a good thing to stretch our creative brains. Your card is terrific. Love the mouse in the wreath. The plaid paper is terrific. Love, love the sentiment! Wonderful card. TFS

This is stunning! First, the sentiment is cutely funny! Second, your color choices are so warm and rich - they perfectly capture the feelings of Christmas. Third, I love the photo corners and plaid.
