House Mouse : Stay Cool

Hi all :-) It's time for a new theme over on the  House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge,

This time April  hosting and the theme is 

Anything Goes 
+ the option of Make Your Own Background 

I used a gorgeous, new, Spellbinders: House Mouse Stay Cool Cling Stamp Set


I colored with Copic Markers and added a few dabs of Star Dust Stickles here and there. I white heat embossed one sentiment and simply stamped another along the bottom before adding some machine stitching around the edges. 
For the background I used a Paper Artsy Stencil designed by JOFITim Holtz Schoolhouse and Halftone Layering Stencils along with Distress Inks 



Thanks for looking! You have until Sunday 7th July to join in! :-)

As You Like It.  With Or Without Words and why: I use a sentiment on the vast majoriy of cards that I make, I can't remember the last time I didn't add one! I think they 'finish' it!

Aud Sentiments: Shaker and/or Summer + sentiment

Lorraine, what a fun numbers and letters background. The image is so cute and colored up beautifully. We have had the high temps here and the air conditioner has been running continually.

Hugs

Your new stamp is just so beautiful. I love the house mouse stamps so much as well. They are always so pretty and cute. And this one is really so cool. It fits the season so well. Gorgeous colors and great design. I love the sewn edges. It's a beautiful finishing touch.
Thank you so much for taking part in the last Everybody Art Challenge.
Hugs, Uschi
