House Mouse Monday and Papertake weekly Challenges



I made this card following the sketch on the House Mouse Monday Challenge,the theme on the Papertake Weekly Challenge is 'edible'. The background paper and lacy border paper is from basic grey, I also used some black/yellow coredinations and a little gemstones card from cordinations too, I just bought that and I must say it is gorgeous :-). The HM stamp is 'Monica's Gift' I bought some extra large brads ages ago and never used them so I thought I would use one on this. I sanded it a bit to distress then stamped it with stazon using a SU stamp. It didn't photograph very well, a bit shiny but it looks good in real life :-)
Have to take Jessie walkies now, she's going berzerk !! woofin n bitin !! :-)
Will pop round later to see what you've all been up to :-)
