Jo has my friend Leslie as her Guest Elf this month! I fully intended to dig through my Christmas supplies for my Santa Claus sets, then I spotted this darling 'Santa Mouse' among those Penny Black Tiny Tinsel characters and couldn't resist him for Christmas Kickstart's Challenge #102: Santa in September!
I had two full sets of those characters already stamped in Toffee Crunch on watercolor paper. This one got a little paint, a pretty frame, and a trio of trees...
Background embossed with un-named snow. Triangle trees from Reverse Confetti.
Sentiment included in the PennyBlack Tiny Tinsel set stamped in red. PB Frame It.
Okay. The second Santa-mouse was left in all that yummy creaminess:
Self-built house, Fresh Air Window frame die from The Greetery, and a stamped
Reverse Confetti tree in the window! HO3 from MFT's Jingle All the Way.
You know the drill - you have to go to the Christmas Kickstart gallery
to see which of my cards made the cut! While you're there, why not play? Those
Christmas cards don't make themselves, folks!

Oh my goodness, Michele! Both of these are just so sweet and wonderful! Love your cards!
I love mouse stamps. The first Christmas card is very cute I really love the colors and white Christmas trees BUT my Favorite card is the second one done all in white, it’s spectacular. It’s STUNNING! No color at all yet it stands out . I love that one so much Michelle I think I will try your idea out myself. 💖💙🩵
I am SO not ready to even think of Christmas, but if anything can make me smile today these are it!!! So cute, clever and unique. You've got the touch, girl! Thanks for sharing!
There would be no fun if the cards made themselves. And it looks like you had lots more fun with this set, Michele! These little Santa Mice are as adorable and I imagine that you smiled at them the whole time!
I'm so sorry, but I don't know what company PB is.
OMG this is amazing and adorable as.... well you know! I love them both, and your coloring (on the one) is pretty amazing!
Too danged cute, Michele! You keep making me go back to window shop... my finger is hovering over the "add to cart" button. These little darlings are definitely on my list. Gosh, I love the first one so much with the frame and the triangle trees and that sweet little bit of your awesome watercoloring. The second one is just as cute with Santa Mouse about to slip down the chimney of your homemade house. Or is he coming back up? Either way, he's just about the cutest little Santa ever! I'm so glad you played with Jo and me at Christmas Kickstart!
Michele these are both so sweet! You have such a flair with design my friend!
There is a WHOLE LOT of cuteness happening here! That little Santa mouse is the sweetest. Both versions are a treat, but I'm loving all of the layers on the first one!
More really cute cards. I do love the little scenes you have created for your cute mice and I can see you are enjoying and getting really good at watercolouring the images xx
The minimal coloring and white on white still brings those adorable critters to life! Love both cards to pieces!
Oh my, isn't he the cutest! You've colored him (or not) and combined him with those RC trees in a most delightful way, Michele.
I just love this cute little mouse Michele! Both your cards are so super sweet! I love all the white on both. It really makes for a special Christmas card!! Hope you're aving a lovely weekend! :)
Both cards are really impactful. I do like the colored Santa mouse against all the white, but the white card with just the outlines just grabs me too.
Super cute makes, I always love a pop of red on the whites!!
What a cute Santa mouse and your cards are fabulous. Love all the layers on the first card and the cute slimline card in its yummy creaminess.
Both of these are absolutely ADORABLE Michele and I am totally loving the white on white on both cards with just a POP of color on the first card with Santa Mouse! I think PB needs to hire you!! Sweet, sweet cards my friend!! Hugs. :0)
Oh, Michele, what adorable cards! Love them both and all that gorgeous whiteness is just wonderful. Thanks for joining Leslie and me at The Christmas Kickstart Challenge, Jo x
Oh my. These mice are so sweet. I love all the white. The first with the pop of color, and the second just white. Both so fabulous.
And the awesomeness just keeps on coming. FANTABULOUS.
The white card almost looks like it would fit in with your 'houses'!
