A Little Mousy Fun!

 Today, I am playing in the House Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge which is Anything Goes with an optional Celebrate It! theme.  I am celebrating my sweet husband.  He has been down a bit, but has also been extremely supportive of me the last few weeks.  Communicating even (lol).  

I used the CTMH Hey Handsome paper, sentiment, and dies cuts, but it was kind of boring until the mouse was added!  The mouse is upside down Muzzy - an older House Mouse image and one of my first House Mouse purchases. Muzzy's tail is hooked to the eye glasses. 

Wishing you loads of fun this week.

Hugz,

Nancy

    Nancy, what a delightful card. The black and white background is such fun and the balancing little mouse is adorable. thanks for sharing your card with us at the House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge. ps, thanks for sending me the card you made with the fishbowl kitty. You did a wonderful job of coloring it up and designing the layout of the image. Hugs, Sue.

Forest Goodies and Other Projects

 Hello Crafty Friends. I just got the Stamperia Forest Paper and Die Cuts in the mail so I had to play with them right away.   I have a combo creation - journal page and card.  On the journal page I used my 6x6 Dina Wakley Journal and laid a base of gesso.  I then used Dina's pastel crayons and some SU! inks and stamps.  Also added in some TH Dress Ink in Vintage Photo since I don't know how to make anything without it  (seriously).   The eagle is a Stamperia Forest die cut and is coated with gesso.  Did a bit of stenciling and distressing to finish the page off.  I am linking this the the **Art*Journal*Journey* September Texture Theme (last day - can't wait to see what October's Theme will be).  The die cut and the little smears add texture to the already very textured page.   I love the blue and green together and was inspired to made a quick card for my Son-in-law who cut down some tree limbs for us the other day....

Some Penguins

Today kicks off the newest Pattie's Creations Challenge which is Tags . Just Tags. No cards with Tags on or in them - just tags. I love to make just tags so this one was right up my alley. I used the super cute Penguin image from Pattie's Creations, but I couldn't stop at just one so I made a little penguin family. My tag is made from an old cardboard box top which I peeled down, painted, distressed a bit, and then added some snow medium. My bow is actually a new bow designed by Pamela Lehto (available at Squigglefly tomorrow). Please join us in the Pattie's Creations Tag Challenge - there are lovely DT tags for inspiration and Pattie gives away wonderful prizes! Hugz!

Bear-ied In Paperwork

 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
