Welcome to Mix it up Monday for Doodlebugs everyone! This week really switches gears to holiday inspiration from all directions so bear with me if you’re still in spooky mode.

Today I created a simple card using the Mama Elephant Candy Cane Lane stamps and dies. I started by stamping and coloring three of the mice with copic markers. Then I used the coordinating dies to cut them out and set them aside to create my background.

Taking an A2 size white panel of cardstock, I used post-it tape to mask off the bottom portion of my card, a few inches from the top. I ink blended that section with Distress Oxide Ink in tattered rose and spun sugar for a soft peachy pink gradient. Then, leaving the mask in place, I stamped the mushroom house from Candy Cane Lane on the right side.

I also stamped my sentiment from the Pretty Pink Posh Wavy Christmas Greetings stamp set on the bottom before gluing the panel to a white card base. Last, I popped the mice up with foam squares and added stardust Stickles to the poms on each of their hats.
Isn’t this a sweet but simple Christmas card!?! I adore how it turned out!
I appreciate you sharing your time with me. Have a fabulous day!
