So Sweet Mice for a New Year!



Happy start to a New Year and wishing everyone all the best in 2014!  I would also like to wish my cousin, Kelly, a very happy New Year's birthday.  This one's for you!

Today brings a new release to the Doodle Pantry store, and I got to play with the new digital set, So Sweet Mice.  Here's a preview of everything included in the So Sweet Mice set as well as all the goodies included in the Calendar Minis set: 
  


I merged the fun mouse with tiny cherries from the Calendar Minis set (previously sold by CDS).  The mouse image was masked and cropped to shape in a Microsoft Word document.  I also filled the circle's background with color.  Coloring of the sweet mouse image was done with colored pencils; and I added glitter to the ice cream. Sentiment is from a SU!/MDS set.

I will be entering my card in the following challenges:
Paper Makeup Challenge #121 -- Anything Goes
Hiding in My Craft Room HIMCR #130 -- Anything but Holiday
Animal Friends Challenge #10 -- Punches and Dies

Also, want to let everyone know that the current Doodle Pantry special -- 40% off digital products (excluding gift certificates) with a minimum purchase of $2 ends January 3.  Click HERE to get the coupon code and see January's special products.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a great day and New Year!
