New week, Newly inked 2

How seriously fun is this moose?

I just love her! She's from the $3 set I got at Walmart - yes, Walmart.

I used Julee's Mojo Monday sketch http://poeticartistry.blogspot.com/2008/12/mojo-monday-week-64.html Ms. Moose and this gorgeous snowflake paper from the DCWV Christmas stack seemed made for this sketch. I colored Ms. Moose with Koh-i-noor and used fun flock on her leg warmers because...Baby, it's getting cold here. Sentiment is stamped in black Stazon and highlighted with silver Spica.

I'm sending Ms. Moose to Colette. I learned about her on Julie Buhler's blog http://paperpleasing.typepad.com/my_weblog/2008/12/meet-colette.html This woman sounds so strong, both emotionally and in her faith. My heart breaks for her and her family, but I am so impressed with her story and her courage. I hope Ms. Moose brings a smile to her day.

Today I am grateful for: snuggling in with all three kids for storytime, my parents calling just to say hi, hearing my son teach his little sister the Christmas story, my daughter kissing Baby Jesus from her Nativity and saying 'thank you', Pink Sugar bubble bath
