Today is all about cute critters on a Chrissy card, and of course they are from Penny Black Deck the Halls. These were published in the Australian Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft magazine and I was lucky to make the cover with this cute little mouse!
Are you nearly ready yet? Christmas is only just round the corner…. do you have any major plans or is going to be a quiet one for you this year? I’m working but will be home in the evening, so looking forward to a ‘tapas’ style Christmas feast with a little champagne on the side…

You never cease to amaze me with your colouring skills, Therese…these cards are SO adorable!

Those little critters are so adorable! Well done on the publishing and making the cover! I hope you have a Merry Christmas. We will be back and forth between home and Chicago in order to accommodate all the relative’s wishes – busy, fun, and very cold!
Congratulations on your cover! These little critters are adorable. Your coloring and design choices are superb. Fabulous cards.
I believe! Of all the critters in the stamping world, Penny Black is my favorite! And Ms Therese, I must say you are my favorite stamping artist – there’s something wonderful about your coloring and style – like magic – yes, I believe! Merry Christmas & thank you so much for your inspiration!
Adorable cards! The PB kitties are always my favorite!

You do critters so well, Therese. No wonder they made the cover.
I also wanted to offer my congratulations on being featured on the cover of a magazine. Quite an honor, and certainly deserved. Your work is always gorgeous and I love how you keep your fans inspired.
Absolutely gorgeous and cute Therese ! I love Penny Black critters, I also have a Christmas critters stamp from them and I adore it !
