Merry Christmouse Card

I'm trying to finish up with some of my 2022 didn't get-around-to-publishing posts of which this Christmas card is one. It's a Merry Christmouse card featuring Hetty Clare's Merry Christmouse digi and sentiment. Hetty has some great digis for Christmas, this CAS Home for the Holidays treehouse card is a past favorite.

Paper is Folia Christmas. A ric-rac die-cut and enamel dots serve as embellishments. Now, if you're thinking those enamel dots are a wee bit big for this card and are placed in a strange configuration, you're right, they are. They were an emergency card-saving measure. I had some Nuvo Crystal drops strategically placed around the image, nothing too ostentatious, quite cute, and then I went and picked the dang card up before they dried and smudged them...grrrr. I liked the rest of the card so much I couldn't bear to not use it. I picked off the Nuvo dots with a palette knife and covered the remaining smudges with these enamel dots.
