From A butterfly To A Chevy























YAWN!............Monday Morning and the start to another week, why on a Monday does it  seem to take me forever to get going,  so I have for you, a double post for House Mouse and Prickley Pear

So to remind you of the theme over on the House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge, this time it was our lovely Sue's turn to choose the theme and she chose "Sunny days" - Use something on your creation that represents sunny days.  I chose 'HMJR1017 Butterfly Express'  and to make it a sunny creation I inked in some sunshine amongst some clouds.  I decided to use black for matting and layering to make the colours pop.
Of course you must use a House MouseHappy Hopper or Gruffie to join in.
