A Brilliant Party?

Hi everyone, how are you today? The sun was holding out here this morning but I believe it has now officially disappeared!

My friend Cheryl has asked me to tell you all about a new challenge blog that Cheryl and Michelle are working together to launch, the first challenge will go live on the 1st of may and they would really like to build up a few followers before then. Here is their fab blog badge and link.


                                             http://mishelfloschallenge.blogspot.co.uk/

So what do I have to show you today? Another House Mouse card coloured in with Derwent pencils and yep you guessed it more torn papers too lol I fear I may be getting a little bit predictable but I hope to have gotten round to making a card with one of my own digi's later on in the week so that should be something a little different.



So we have chocolate, cake and music in this card plus some very happy looking mice I think that sounds like a fun party don't you?

To make my card, I have used an 8"x8" card base, 1 paper from a Joanna Sheen House Mouse paper pack and one paper from My Minds Eye lost and found collection. The image is a House Mouse stamp coloured in using Derwent pencils, I have then used some chocolate coloured ribbon and flowers to decorate.

I would like to enter my card in to the following challenges,
Craft-Room Challenges - Music
Creatalicious Challenges - Challenge #32 - A Sketch ( I have turned the sketch on it's side, I hope that's ok)
Cards Galore Challenge Blog - April Challenge - Celebration
Emma's Crafty Cards Challenge - Challenge #3 - Chocolate
Penny Black & More at Allsorts Challenge Blog - April Challenge - Oh So Cute
Moving Along With The Times Challenge Blog - Challenge #142 - Cute n' Cuddly

House Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge Blog - Challenge HMFMC116 - Lets Have A Party
