MFTSC60 - Merry Christmas & a couple of Shout Outs

Hello!
Thanks for stopping by...

I had a bad day yesterday, but today was wonderful! I was feeling kind of down from something that happened yesterday. Then this morning a "NEW" friend from a crafting group called me from Canada and we talked for 2+ hours! It was wonderful to hear her voice and to be able to think of something pleasant for a change. We chatted about our families and esp. our grandsons. It was a blessing to me to speak with Dani on the phone. Thank You sweet Dani B-C. Love Ya Chica!
Then about an hour later a dear friend from my junior high school days called. I hadn't heard from Jo-Ellen (Jo for short), in years, other than her annual Christmas card. It was wonderful to hear her voice again after so many years. Thanks JO! Love You too!

Now on to my card...

My Favorite Things Sketch Challenge #60 Unfortunately my stamps haven't arrived from MFT. :-( But any day now! :-P So I just went ahead and used an old (no name) stamp to create this card. I love this sweet little mouse. He's stamped using Encore! Ultimate Metallic in Gold.
Then I used my water color pencils to give him life and Copic markers in red and orange to color his little bow.
My pattern papers are from 3BugsInARug and Collage Press. I used stickles and rubons to enhance my scalloped border.

Now I am off to fix some supper.
Come back soon and tell all your friends!
