Bouncing by...


I love this House Mouse stamp, it reminds me of bouncing on my Grandma's feather bed when I was a little girl! I created this card for 3 challenges.

House Mouse Challenge #74-The Letter B
Creative Inspirations #70-color challenge mint and chocolate
Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge #63

The B's that I used for the House Mouse Challenge are Bunnies, Bouncing, Brown, Blanket, Bed and Button. The paper is 7 Gypsies. I paper pieced the Blanket which took me a while to cut out all of the pieces between the bars of the Bed! I stamped the saying and the Hi is Basic Grey. The punches are Martha Stewart and I added flowers, ribbon and a button. Stay Cool and thanks for stopping by!

  6. Julia, looks like a lot of snipping went on to get that bedspread looking so great! Love the colors you chose and those little mice are colored to perfections! Don't they look like they are having just the time of their life, until Mom shows up and puts a stop to it, right! Glad you shared this card with us at House Mouse and Friends this challenge! Nicely done.
