Peek-A-Boo


This week's CAS challenge is ~ Peek-a-boo~  & the current House Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge is about "recycle/reuse"  I cut that piece of dp & backed it with the pink c/s awhile ago & then decided that the colors didn't match the image I was going to use, so I put it my scrap pile.

Stamps: Mudpie Holds Jellybeans
c/s; white, bubblegum pink
copics, Seeing Spots ef, Fresh Snow twill tape

Until next time!

Power Poppy Power & Spark January


This month's Power & Spark challenge is to create a project with winter blooms.  I need a card to send to a friend going through a rough time & I found out her favorite color is purple.  I don't like purple & don't have purple dp, so I paired it with black & made it work!  I've made these blooms several different colors but not purple & I think they turned out really pretty! *grin*   One of my goals for this year is to use more digi stamps, I think they are gorgeous, but just don't take the time to print them out & use them.

Stamps: Hellebores Digi Stamp Power Poppy
c/s: white, black
copics, wink of Stella glitter, black grosgrain ribbon, black pearls

Until next time!

HMFMC232 Birthday Wishes




The House Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge is BAAAACK!!!!  The current theme is "New, New, New"  I've had this stamp for a little while & haven't inked it up.  My goal for this year is to send out more birthday cards & actually get them in the mail on time.    I have a person in mind who's birthday is next week.  I've actually gotten the envelope all ready & it will go in the mail tomorrow.  That means it will be a bit early, but it's better than being late!!!  *grin*

Stamps: Cheesy Gift House Mouse

copics, red grosgrain ribbon, oval punches
