House Mouse 'Gifts to Tie'

I am here with a reminder for you not to forget to join in with the House Mouse and Friends Challenge. The theme for this fortnight is 'Pop it Up', so just add some dimension to your card and join in ! 

I recently bought this House Mouse  'Gifts to Tie' cling stamp and made a shaker card. 


I used a Polaroid Die from Lawn Fawn to make the frame and kept the design fairly simple. I used a new cardstock colour from Simon's recent release, this one is slate grey,,, love this colour with mauve paper !


Thanks for looking :-)

Simon Says Stamp May Card Kit Card

Hi all :-) I hope you're all enjoying a lazy Sunday and managing to find some crafty time :-)

I have another card to share today using the May card Kit from Simon Says Stamp.  I know I have said it before but i think these kits are such a great deal ! So many products in there and for a bargain price + when the kit arrives it feels like receiving a birthday pressie every month :-)

I made this following this weeks fab sketch on the Less Is More Challenge 


I love making shaker cards,, I always think they are so much for fun, especially for small children.  I used the star stencil to create the starburst and used star sequins and some diamond dust for the shake, the diamond dust is quite heavy and makes a fab 'shaker' sound. 
I used some plaid paper from the kit to paper piece the sneakers.


Thanks for looking :-)  I have to go and cook lunch now ,,, hope you all have a lovely day :-)

Challenges :
Less is More ,,,,,, Sketch
Open Minded,,, Sports and Activities 
The Squirrel and the Fox ,,, Die Cuts/Punches 






Hope you all have a great day :-)
