Hello and welcome to my Blog, I hope you’re all OK and have had a lovely weekend.

It’s time for a new theme over at House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge
Our Mousey sister Sue K is hosting and her theme is
Anything Goes
Or an option of
Spring Flowers

I have used the super cute House Mouse stamp, Sleeping Under Flowers. My base card was created by smooshing oxide inks, then stamping over with a little flourish stamp. I chose colours to co-ordinate with the colours on my image.
For the main image I coloured with pencils, then inked around the edge with oxide. To give it a little interest I added glitter around the edge. 
   

Of course you must use a House MouseHappy Hopper or Gruffie to join in.

Love Is In The Air

 Hello and welcome to my Blog, I hope you’re all OK and have had a lovely weekend.  I have re-joined House Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge, oh how I have missed using my little mousey stamps! It will be wonderful to create along side the lovely team again!

It’s time for a new theme over at House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge
Our Mousey sister April is hosting and her theme is
Anything Goes
Or an option of
Red and/or Pink & White

I have used the fabulous House Mouse stamp “Take A Bite Out Of Love” HMJR1060, and coloured it with pencils.  I have used a stencil around the mice, which look like tiny little hearts.  I shaded around my mice and then grounded them with pink ink.
For the base card I smooshed Andy Skinner’s Ink-ology Inks, and added some Kuretake glitter liquid into the wet ink for a bit of a shimmer.  Then stamped some hearts all over the card.

Happy Mouse Day



Welcome to my post today,  I have decided to give my House Mouse a turn and it’s nice to be finished with winter and Christmas themes.  

I have kept this simple as I love this stamp and it just works standing alone with no fuss. I have used “Birthday Mischief”  I have coloured my image with Castle Arts pencils, they are new and I now have three different collections.  They are so soft and blend beautifully. The background is done with Distress Inks and some Glossy Accents on the balloon.
