Have yourself a merry little Christmas...

I love the Penny Black mice and when I found this set I knew I had to have it! The stamp is from a clear set called Holly Day Critters. For the last week I've been fighting off a cold and these last couple of days I felt like my creative juices weren't flowing. What's a stamper to do?? I head on over to SCS where ideas and inspiration are everywhere. I looked to their weekly challenges and sure enough I found something! I did the Breezy Vanilla Kisses (although I had to substitute with similar colors) and SC196 which is based on this card sketch: Here's what I came up with:
