Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge #246 - Night Before Christmas

 There was a tradition with my husband's extended family that Dan (pseudo grandpa) would dress up in a vintage sleeping gown and cap and read "Twas The Night Before Christmas" to the kids.  He started that tradition with his own three boys and it continued with our children until he passed away several years ago.  That was such a special memory and something the kids always looked forward to!
 
 Nina has a special challenge for us: to create a Christmas Card using the Night Before Christmas theme.


For my card, I used this adorable Mama Elephant set - Festive Mice.  I've been needing a "reason" to break it open and was so thrilled to see Nina's challenge for this week!
Now it's YOUR turn!  Be sure to stop by the other Design Team members' blogs and check out the amazing projects they have to share!
