Can't you just hear these little mice singing Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow in their squeaky little mouse voices!
Going back to Lydia's WT challenge a couple of weeks back to use the space in front of our cards, I still hadn't tried out an awning card - time to fix that. And for the TLC this week, I used AppliGlue for the snow on the log on the little stage, and the mesh stuff with snow I've had for so long that I can't even remember what it's called!!
5 3/4" square base covered with green Bazzill Bling. I stitched the white snowy mesh to a white square.
I used a scrap of faux wood from my desk that was just large enough to make the little stage, scoring it at 1/2" intervals with a stylus to get a good deep score.
Awning is old fancy paper punched with Word Window Punch, and layered onto the same green Bazzill Bling, punched with scallop punch. After scoring and folding it I added some silver Stickles.
Penny Black image stamped on Bristol Board and coloured with distress inks. Stickles on the scarves, Glossy Accents on Mr. Mouse's spectacles, AppliGlue for the snow. In the end I decided to cut them out so that you could see as much snow as possible.
See-Ds sentiment with the edges sponged with brown, popped up on foam dots and gold Liquid Pearls to look like tacks holding it up .
I've got all the Christmas cards I need, I don't know why I'm still making them!

Sabrina,
Your card is so adorable - the stage looks wonderful - and your awning reminds me of a perfect concert awning - bright with lights for the stage. I love it!
