Well, it's been a while since I colored up a House Mouse stamp, and I got this one from Pauline, my friend I got to visit in Canada a few weekends ago. Pauline has a huge assortment of these guys. I admit that they are kinda time consuming to color the little guys up, but they are so stinking cute!!
This card is heading into a friends collection, {how do ya like it Mary?}
I spent a good amount of time trying different tags and other little embellishments on this baby, and I didn't like anything! The patterned paper is from Daisy D, it's a 6x6 pad from last Christmas, I wanted something soft. The lacy punch is from Martha and that paper is a shimmery gold, it just doesn't photograph that way.
Looking forward to the weekend in Michigan! See ya soon! love...paula
Simple adorable Paula!!! This was the very first House Mouse stamp I bought way back in the days!
Mary your a lucky gal!

On some cards "less is more"...this card doesn't need any extra embellies, it is darling just as it is. Love the stitching too and this image is the cutest!

This is fabulous.....I find that if a house mouse is colored well then it "holds it's own" with patterned paper and ribbon! I LOVE your coloring!

Hi Paula. I'm so excited to see all your creations since I've been in Zurich. I had a whole week of missing out. I had a peek from my Blackbery though, as I couldn't wait too long. Great cards as always.
