Sketch Saturday gets Christmassy

For some reason I'm struggling with my House Mouse new stamps, I've tried colouring this with watercolour pens, Copics, pencils, you name it!  I think this is the best of the bunch using watercolour pencils.  I went out yesterday and visited a Do Craft stockist.  I was quite snobbish about their stuff when I started out but I've found that they do have some nice stuff if you take the time to look.  This DP came from a lovely pad of papers in traditional Christmas colours which inspired me to make a card based on this week's Sketch Saturday Challenge.  Sentiment and diecut holly are from Craftwork Cards.

  2. I think he turned out adorable. I have had a hard time with some of mine also and finally figured out I needed to use a smooth paper so it didn't look so craggy. I have an example up on my blog from this morning that I colored with Copics. Glad to meet you and hope you stop in and visit me.
