When I first saw the new House-Mouse Designs® Little Drummers stamp, the Christmas carol "Little Drummer Boy" came to mind, I especially love this version with Bing Crosby and David Bowie . I figure eventually, I'll use the stamp and that sentiment to make a card. Til then, here's what I created.

Instructions:
- Use the base die from the Dome Jar Shaker Die to cut patterned paper and red cardstock.
- Use the larger of the two elongated rounded rectangle dies from that set to cut an opening in the patterned paper to form the front of the card.
- Pinch the score lines on both sides of the patterned paper front, then fold backwards.
- Use the Gold Sheer Shimmer dauber to edge the patterned paper along the window and all edges, including the fold lines. After all, more glitz is always good, right? Right!
- Pinch the score lines on both sides of the red cardstock die-cut, then fold the sides forward.
- Use Memento ink to stamp the Little Drummers image onto white paper.
- Color the image with Copic markers.
- Use the smaller of the elongated rounded rectangle dies to cut the image panel.
- Adhere the image panel to the inside of the card back as shown.
- Using strong adhesive tape or glue, adhere the front of the card to the back of the card.
