House Mouse

Hi there! I'm back with a House Mouse card:



I used:
House Mouse Triple CD Collection
Glossy Accents
Martha Stewart border punch
Forever Friends Kraft Notes papers

Challenges:
House Mouse Challenge 'something-old nothing-new' (my backing papers are very old!)


I used to think that it was in some way cheating to use CD's for card making until I saw Pauline's stunning work and realised that it is not just a matter of printing things off and sticking them down but you can do so much more with them. So I say embrace the CD's and print away!!

Thanks for stopping by!

                  

Harvest Mouse

Happy Monday - I hope that you are enjoying your Bank Holiday weekend and the sun is shining for you!

Here is my card for today:



I thought that I would have a change from Penny Black and I used:
MFT Harvest Mouse stamps and dies
MFT Blueprints 14
Stampin' Up! retired papers, twine, punches (for the sentiment) and wooden embelishments
Promarkers
Pink Petticoat sentiment

Challenges:
As you like it challenge 'favourite big or little bows and why'  as a rule I like little bows as big bows are too bulky to fit in an envelope!

Strawberry planting is on the agenda today so hopefully in time I will have lots of lovely fresh strawberries to eat - yum!
Hope you have a fabulous day.
