Chrissy, the Christmas mouse...

lives in the middle of Santa's house...

Good Saturday morning friends.
I've got a simple card for a super quick post today as I'm running late for work... what can I say, sometimes simple is good right? There's no altering, no cutting the image out, heck the entire background is one pre-made card base. All in all this card only took 20 minutes to make... not too shabby when things get super busy. :)

You still have until tonight to get entered into this week's Sweet November candy. If you want a chance to win just leave a comment here.

Ok, so sorry to keep things short and sweet today... but I'll be back tomorrow with a blog candy winner. Always exciting!
