Ice Skating Henry Mouse

I have a Christmas card to share today...featuring an old Whiff of Joy stamp called 'Ice Skating Henry Mouse'. I stamped him on to a snippet of watercolour paper, then coloured him using watercolour pencils. For the background, I used a Chloe Creative Stamps background stamp called 'Christmas Sentiment Background'...stamping it on to a piece of watercolour effect paper (from the 'Mystery Marbles' pad by Craft Sensations) using Versamark Ink, then heat embossing it in white. I added a snippet of white card along the bottom, then carefully cut Henry out, popped him on top using 3D foam pads, then matted it all on to navy card before adding it to a white card blank.
