Ice Skating Mouse

Hello, everyone!  I'm rushing to share my cards this month and will be coming around to visit your blogs this weekend!  Today I'm sharing a winter holiday card.  This cute Ice Skating Mouse is from Gerda Steiner Designs, and I coloured her with markers and fussy-cut.

I adhered the image to a background from The Paper Shelter (So Comfy and So Fluffy), which I die-cut with a stitched circle (Gina Marie Designs).  The white cardstock has been die-cut with a Pinpoint Rectangle (Memory Box) and embossed with Die'sire Embossalicious Let it Snow.  The teal panel has been embossed with the same embossing folder.  I stamped a sentiment (MFT Warm Wishes) on a scrap from The Paper Shelter background mentioned above, adhered to another scrap from the same paper.  Behind the circle, which is popped up on foam tape, is a strip of polka dot paper from BoBunny.  To finish the card, I embellished with three teal snowflake sequins.

My card design was inspired by the May sketch at Cheerful Sketches:
