X-stitch Mice

A fun challenge on the Joanna Sheen forum as it passes mid month again. This time we need to use a bit of stitching and although I can no longer do any real sewing I found a bit of embroidery thread and had fun. The piercing die made it easy and I will be on the look out for more of the same. I accept I need to put a bit of practice in taking photos of mirror card and it is on my list of things to do, but hopefully it looks ok. I am beginning to wonder about the number of favourite stamps I have, here is another one.
