How many days now...?

I found some very cute mini Christmas stamps recently, they are called Tinchies (by Personal Impressions) and are just over £1 each and very cute. Here is the reindeer face one. I thought I would only use these images on small cards but I have tried this one out on a normal sized card and it means you can see more of the beautiful paper so think it works ok...

Isn't he cute!
