{PIN}spirational Challenge # 36


Hello Friends!

I have two posts for you today so make sure you scroll down to see the second post.  I also have some more exciting news to share!  I have been offered a position on the team of {PIN}spirational Challenges!!!  Lots of good news to share lately, I have been feeling very blessed.  

Well, you ask what the {PIN}spirational challenges are?  Each week the challenge is to look at a picture and make a creation inspired by the picture.  So this week the beautiful blue ornaments are your inspiration.


The sponsor this week is QKR Stampede.

and


So finally my card.  I think this mouse is adorable from the sponsor.  I colored him up with my copics and matted him using Spellbinders oval dies.  I tied some extra twine to the ornament to make it look like he was getting ready to hang the ornament.  The background paper is by MME and the sentiment was cut out of a paper by Me & My Big Ideas.  I used some extra perfect pearls and lace for embellishments.


Copics used:
Ornament & Pants:  B91, B93, B95, B97, B99
Holly: YG93, YG95, YG97
Mouse:  W1, W3, W5, W7
Bell:  Y28, W1, W3
Shoes:  E41, E43, E44
Hat:  R24, R27, R89


The inside I used more MME paper and used a punch by EK Success to cut out the lace in green.  The tag was inked with Tim Holtz distress inks and stamped with PSX Sentiment.


Ok, it is your turn.  Take another look at the ornament picture and head over to {PIN}spirational Challenges to play along with us.  The challenge closes Monday December 10.

I would also like to enter this in the following challenges:

Thanks for stopping by!
Blessings until next time....
