House-Mouse Are Stirring Up the Holidays!


Not a creature was stirring, but maybe a few mice! This week there is a plethora of House-Mouse Christmas designs being shared by Stampendous and the Design Team! Stop by and have a blast seeing these mischievous creatures in their holiday best!


Today I have the sweetest two mice enjoying some holiday Gift Giving! I took the time to mask this image and made a bokeh effect for colorful tree lights in the background. It was a lot of fun and easy! You can get all the details at the end of my post today...just keep scrolling.


If you are a House-Mouse stamper and have fun sharing with friends why not keep the sharing going with fellow mice lovers! Stop by any week to share a project with House-Mouse characters on the House-Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge Blog

    Oh, the circles in the background look great! They remind me of the lights that glowed on our tree when I was a kid. They were huge!

There is an Anni-Verve-Sary party going on today! Verve Stamp Company is 2 years old! The hop started at Verve's blog , so come hop on board and see over 5 dozen projects that are sure to get your Verve on! I've been waiting for the right time to blog about this project and when the opportunity came to join in the anniversary blog hop for Verve I knew it was time. My blog hop project today uses all Plain Jane Bible verses from Verve. I saw this project at Susan Roberts gallery on Splitcoaststampers and went to her blog to get the details . I decided to make one for my mother as a Christmas present...in 2008. Yep, I just now finished it and I have the blog hop to thank. Using sketches would have made this a whole lot faster.

And I'll give the details below, but first here's a slide show of the whole year. Hebr...
