Here is a card that I have made to send to a friend as a thank you.
To make this card I have used an 8"x8" shaped card blank, yellow card stock, 2 papers from Papermania, yellow lace and some mustard coloured satin ribbon. My image is stamped out using a Joanna Sheen House Mouse rubber stamp and coloured in using Promarkers. I have then decorated with some of the stick pins I made the other day, a bow, 3 normal buttons and one flower shaped button and some paper flowers and gems.
I am so in to mice right now, originally I intended to use some Thomas Kinkade decoupage or something from the enchanted dreams cd rom for the Joanna Sheen spring themed challenge but we have a bunny that lives in a hutch in the garden and lately he hasn't been using the upstairs part of his hutch, we have discovered over the last few days that some new neighbours have moved in to the upstairs of his hutch. There are two different types of mice living up there now (I have no idea what types they are lol) one is quite a large one and we had seen him a few times sitting underneath the carpet that covers the rabbit hutch and the other one is a little tiny one that we found in the hutch Saturday morning, on closer inspection it seems these mice have made a home in the enclosed straw filled section in the upstairs of the bunny's hutch. So anyway enough ramble but this really put me in the mind to make another house mouse card lol they are just too cute!
