What a Christmas Card in March???

Ok, many would say I am slightly mad but some would think I was sensible making a Christmas card so early in the year to save a mad panic when I'm heading towards the festive season. This is the first Christmas card I've made this year, what prompted me to do it was the fabby challenge over on Susie & Vikki's Christmas Club Blog Challenge as the theme this week is Hot Chocolate and I had the perfect stamp that I hadn't got round to using last year.

So here's my card and I'd like to enter it into the Hot Chocolate challenge please ladies :-)

Card blank - Craftwork Cards
Cardstock - Coredinations Whitewash from The Glitter Pot and red Bazzill Basics
Papers - Cosmo Cricket Jolly By Golly from Quixotic Paperie
Image - Henry Mouse With Large Teacup from Whiff of Joy coloured with Promarkers
Sentiment - Craftwork Cards backed with Bazzill card and topped with a Basic Grey red button
Stickles Frosted Lace glitter glue - used for the steam coming from the mug
Tools - scissors for distressing
