Henry Drinking His Hot Chocolate

Good morning fellow crafters, I hope you are all well. 

I'm doing ok, a bit more tired than usual as started a new job this week. I enjoy it but it gonna take some getting used to lol!!

Anyhoos, I'm here to share with you my latest 'Happy Little Stampers Christmas' DT creation with you. As always we are an ATG challenge but with an added option theme. Which for this month is...wonderland!

I decided to do an ATG creation, using one of my favourite mice out there. I just love Henry by Whiff of Joy. He is the cutest little beastie!

 Today I'm here to share my latest DT creation for 'Incy Wincy' we are sponsored by the fabulous 'Sheepski' & 'All Dressed Up' for the next fortnight. I was lucky enough to get an image from Sheepski to play with. As you know I'm on the Sheepski DT, Andrea's digi images are some of my favourite ever images & are just great to colour!

Our themes over at 'Incy Wincy' this fortnight are.....

SUMMER & BEACH

OR

ANIMALS

so get your thinking cap on & join in the fun!

I decided to use a Sheepski image I've not used before. The fabulous Hippogriff!

It does say Hippogriff at the bottom, but the glare from my light is so bad. Didn't matter how many photos I took or from what angle I got glare!

My idea for this make, was to have him look like he was in a museum. Hope that makes sense lol!!
