Our sponsors are the terrific Be Creative who are offering another fab prize of £35 worth of embossing crystals!.
Stamped image and coloured with Promarkers. The background was rubbed with pastel chalk and sealed.
I think the background paper must be at least 5 years old!
The sentiment was from TLC and the cupcake was cut from a snippet left in an old paper pad.
I used a Fiskars leaf punch on the odd bits of card left over from the matting and layering. (Playground for me then!!)
A simple band of cream grossgrain ribbon and some dark bronze pearls finished the front and I used the same papers on the inside.
Hope you will have a go with us this month!

Well I certainly don't Viv, but isn't it nice when you re-discover a stamp and usually see it in a totally different light.
This HM image is such fun and looks very striking in the red and black colour palette.
Have a lovely Sunday.

Hi Viv
Wow! I love your fabulous House Mouse card - lovely rich colours and perfect wavy border. That cupcake finishes it all of beautifully.
I'd better not jump on my scales like that because they will break!!
I definitely don't remember all of the stamps that I have and have even bought a duplicate PB stamp from Ebay - oh the shame!!
Hope you have a great weekend.

I couldn't say I remember every single stamp I have, Viv, because I have so many! However, I do think I can recall most of them, with the possible exception of those little flourishy type ones which often seem to be included in sets to fill up the spaces and probably never get used. Anyway, I'm so glad you found this one of yours, because your card is simply delightful! I can so identify with the image!

A gorgeous creation, Viv! Those rabbits are so cute!
This made me giggle, wonderful colouring and a great design. Brilliant card.
No I do not remember only if someone uses it then I think "oh, I've got that one"
Have a good week.
