HAVE A MICE CHRISTMAS (1)

I already created a Christmas card this year, for the "Christmas in July" challenge. But now one for the officials. And it's a cheesy Christmas. I used the new Cheesy Christmas stamp set from Lawn Fawn.

For the background, I used a piece of paper from the Candy Cane Lane paperpad. For the ground, I used Woodgrain cardstock.

I stamped all the images and colored them with Copic Markers:

Mice: E41 - E42 - E44/ W0 - W3/ E00 - E11/ E57 - E29/ R14 - R46/ YG06 - YG09/ C0 - C3 - C5

Cheese tree: E57 - E29/ R14 - R46/ Y15 - Y17

Gifts: R14 - R46/ Y15 - Y17/ YG06 - YG09/ B24 - B26

Radio: C0 - C3 - C5/ B41 - B45/ B24 - B26

I die cut all the images and assembled the card. I die cut one of the Stitched Sentiment Banners from Vanilla Malt cardstock and stamped the sentiment onto it. I also added some of the musical notes to the scene.

As a finishing touch, I added highlights to the images.
