Southern Skies Cardmakers July Card Swap: Merry Christmouse

I love a card swap and as I have this semester off Uni I now have time to join in! The Southern Skies Cardmakers had a ‘Christmas in July’ theme so I made this card using a singing mouse – too cute!! The stamp is from the Merry Mice set by Stampin’ Up! and even though it’s retired, I’m going to keep on using it! 

I also used another mouse stamp from the set to decorate the inside of the card:

And this close up lets you see all the gorgeous detail on the card front, from the shiny nose and glittery pom pom to the sparkling rhinestone:

In the swap I was very lucky to receive these 2 lovely cards from Vicky Griffith as well as a starry Christmas tag! Seeing what others create is part of the fun:

I’ve made a few ‘Merry Christmouse’ cards to go in the EiderCraft Etsy shop and proceeds from their sale will go to A wish for Emily! You can read more about what’s happening for Emily on the facebook page, and donations can be made through gofundme.com/awishforemily. Thanks for visiting today! Megan xo
