Hello crafty peeps, Shopping Our Stash is having a new two week challenge....#457 You Don't Bring Me Flowers, easy peasy we want to see FLOWERS.
Going along with the theme of the challenge I thought the little mouse looked a little sad. Since it is still Fall I used fall colours, not one of my go to colours but it certainly is fall realated with the fall flower in a terra cotta pot. I made an easel card and used some patterned paper scraps from a "fail" but it had the perfect rust colour to match the wonky stitched frame I made with Gina Marie Designs rectangle dies. Happy Birthday is from Impression Obsession. I added three brown home made enamel dots I made 4 years ago one summer at the cottage.
Using an off cut from making a frame for another poject I stamped one of my favourite sentiments and added it to the back of the easel card.
Here is the card when it is closed for mailing.
I am entering this in:
Thanks for stopping by today and head over to the MAIN BLOG and see what floral creations the rest of the design team have made.
I always wondered if he was sulky, sad or mad. It's such a funny image.Love the inside sentiment. Thanks for joining us at HMFMC. {Bunny} Designer for House Mouse and Friends

Gorgeous card and great easel design. To add to what Bunny said... it's also possible he's sitting there fertilizing the flower? :D
ReplyDeleteSuper cute card Barbara :-) I love all the suggestions above! I think he's sitting there contemplating the meaning of life and what's on the menu for dinner haha ;-) The colors and whole design of this is gorgeous <3
