Back again, with a card for this week's House Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge ( HMFMC#424 ). This week the challenge is Anything goes with the option of scraps of paper. I took the option literally and added scraps of paper on my kitchen counter. I needed a thank you card for someone who has been helping us organize A LOT of papers. I stamped the image (House Mouse Gruffies Bear-ied in Paperwork -2007) using CTMH Black, then coloring the image with Daniel Smith Watercolors. I drew in an extra paper or two so that I could make one of them a Thank You paper - it is the top right and shaded pink. Thanks for visiting, Nancy

This one is a Sugar Free Blind Tiger - much better than the sugar free and fat free one I had last week (yuck). I drank this lovely drink last Friday while reading a library book and waiting for my daughter. I had another one yesterday while helping my grandsons read library books. They had ice cream and read 2 books a piece. Then we went to the pizza place across the street and they read 2 more each during lunch. I am doing Grandma's Reading Camp again this year. One day a week, we go to the library and pick out books. They get points for every book they read (more points for harder books). Points equal money at the end of the summer. I do this to try and keep their reading skills fresh. They are 7 and 8 years old so keeping those skills up is super important. They read all the books,
