Sending You A Little MTSC!!!

Hi everyone!! Happy Tuesday!!

I am SO excited that today is finally here! I get to SHOUT from the rooftops that I am Mercy's November Guest Muse!!

I {heart} sweet Mercy and I LOVE her sketches too, so when she asked me to be her muse this month, I jumped for joy!!!

For my card today, I used the utterly darling Sending You A Little Christmas Pure Innocence from My Favorite Things!!

I stamped this cutie in Memento Tuxedo Black onto X Press It Blending Card and colored her with Copic Markers. I paper pieced her coat and hat with the same paper I used on my card, which is all from Everybody Loves Christmas by Echo Park Papers.

I sewed each of the layers on my sewing machine and went a bit crazy with the bling!! LOL!! The tree has TONS of Twinkles adorning its branches, I added some glitter under her feet and the sled for "snow", some Sugar Sparkly Fluff was added to her hat and boot trim and the snowflakes, cut using the Die-Namics Let It Snowflake Die, were coated with glitter as well.

This card was SO much fun to make!! Please head on over and check out what Mercy and her Muses have created with this rockin' sketch right here:

Cindy Haffner
Jackie Pedro
Jessica Diedrich
Julie Lacey
Pam Varnell
Shannan Teubner
and of course, the head Muse herself, Mercy!!

Thanks SO much for stopping by, and Mercy, thank YOU so much for having me as your November Guest Muse!!
