I stamped the image in versafine clair black ink and colored it with alcohol markers. The sentiment is from a Tim Holtz sentiment tablet. It says: It's a beautiful dday to leave me alone.

House Mouse challenge #399

I finally got around to organizing a file box for completed birthday cards. I will continue to put addressed envelopes behind each month with the card that needs to be sent with the date penciled in on the corner of when it should be put in the mailbox. I have never been this organized so I hope this will help me get more of my cards mailed out in time. LOL

I made this card for the current House Mouse challenge to add to my birthday box. I used design paper to cut these banners. Then I stamped this image and colored it with copic markers. These little fellows always seem to know how to celebrate any occasion.

House Mouse challenge #391

Making use of a plaid paper for my option for the House Mouse challenge this week, I chose this cute little mouse in a pot plant to feature on my card. The sentiment is from Pinkfresh and of course the mouse is from Stampablities.  I colored it with Copic markers. I added some flowers and leaves to give the card some extra color. I loved that this plaid ran on the diagonal line. You can check out all the fun for this challenge here:

 Making use of bright and cheerful colors this week for the HMFMC 334 challenge.  You can find the details for the challenge here:

            http://housemouse-challenge.blogspot.com/2021/02/334-anything-goes-option-of-bright.html

I water colored this image with distress oxide inks. Getting to make a bright and cheery card brightened up this unusually cold winter weather that we have had this week in Texas. Our houses are just not built to withstand these temperatures for long periods of time, and apparently our power sources are not set to handle it either as most of us experienced power outages for hours or days in freezing temperatures. 

HMFMC321

 I finally got my House Mouse challenge card done that I have wanted to make for the last 2 weeks. Now I  am rushing to meet the deadline. The twist on the challenge was to use a number. I decided to make this card for an adorable 3 year old, since the little mouse was juggling 3 peanuts.  You can find the House Mouse challenges here:
