A Little Christmas Joy (CSF 940)

Happy 1st of October! It finally feels like it’s officially Fall, even though we’ve been crafting with Fall themes (and even Christmas!) for several weeks now. Today we have a color challenge at Create with Stamping Friends. And look at our new inspiration banner! Isn’t it great? These colors are very Christmasy so I played with A Little Christmas to make my cute little card. Who doesn’t love little Christmas mice! It’s a little Christmas joy!

Here’s our challenge board:

And here’s my card:

So sweet! I love the little one peeking over the table, perhaps helping his Mama make the cookies! Or maybe he is just thinking of sneaking one right off the pan!
