Chimney Sweep.....


A little chimney sweep by Mo Manning; and how adorable is he?  I've always been a fan, but these Christmas images this year are just so cute.  You could almost reach out and pinch his little cheek!

I colored the image with Ranger Distress Inks and then cut out with Spellbinders Labels Ten.  The sentiment is Cornish Heritage Farms Christmas Expressions.  I used a smaller Labels Ten to cut it out.  Then these were layered onto a pretty piece of design paper.  The ribbon is seam binding colored to match the paper.
I had so much fun playing with this image and my card is one of those that just came together quickly.  I love it when that happens! 

Well I hope you have a good day planned and even if it is Monday try and have a good one!  No matter where you are going or what you will be doing, try to find a little time and "Breathe"!
