Just a note

 

Decided to play with one of my favorite house mouses today.  Stamped him with Memento Rich Cocoa ink then colored him with Copics.  Cut out circles with Nestabilities dies.  Background layer was embossed with Cuttlebug Allegro Music Notes folder.  Added some brown and white bakers twine on the lower panel on the sketch and a banner with Just A Note saying in the upper right corner.

Just chicken in

 

Thought this fun chicken would be perfect to use for my neighbors Christmas card.  She loves to knit and is always giving us knitted hats and gifts.  Stamp is made by Penny Black.  Colored with Copics.  Green layer is embossed with Chicken Wire embossing folder.  Cut out two small pieces of silver cardstock for the knitting needles then wrapped green floss around a punched circle to create the ball of yarn.
