Plaid and Stocking Mouse

Got some free time...finally...and decided to play with my watercolors and create
that fun plaid pattern that Kristina Werner did in her Holiday Card Series.
Talk about completely inspired and totally fun to do!

This is how it started out...


I was not too happy with it in the beginning but was inspired by the latest
Curtain Call Challenge


so I pushed forward!  I knew my lines were a bit uneven and of course not straight, so 
I used some vellum to mute it a bit (wink, wink).  I used the Tim Holtz Holiday Words Script
to die cut DCWV Gold Foiled Cardstock.  
I felt like it needed some cuteness and there's nothing cuter than 
the Lawn Fawn Merry Christmouse set from Simon Says Stamptember colored in copics.


and a closeup...
I wanted the stocking to look like it was hanging from the "g"
so I snipped the letter to insert the Lawn Fawn image.


So that's my card today.  I hope everyone had a safe and Happy Halloween!
Now to go create more holiday cards!

Mahalo for stopping by!!
