From Courtney's Closet Challenge-Town Mouse


This is a cupcake/birthday challenge this week! You can see the details of Libby's FCCC challenge HERE.

This Town Mouse stamp is one of the first stamps I ever bought...years ago off of ebay...and I still love it! Kind of goes along with my Holly Pond Hill stamps...anyone remember those? I think this must have been when my addiction to meeces began...


A booboo inside...booboo's always lead to some creative cover ups, don't they? I wanted to use the complete sentiment "Happy Birthday to You" on the edge of the card, but it was too long. Well...when I accidently on purpose put some glue on the inside of the card in the wrong place I had to cover it up...so ta dah! I finished the rest of the sentiment on the little circle and stuck it to the glue...FIXED! Looks like I did it on purpose hehehe.

Don't you love the cupcakes on Courtney's shoes? No wonder she wants to taste them.


Stamps: Town Mouse by Inkadinkadoo, Su retired sentiment

Cardstock: SU DP, pink

Ink: black, choc chip

Misc: Nestabilities, misc ribbon, circle punch to fix the mistake!(oh I used my old retired SU scallop scissors to cut the edge also!)

    Your card is wonderful!! I love the stamp...that little guy is such a cutie with his chubby lil cheeks:o) Love your layout too...I hope you don't mind, but I may be case-ing it. While I was reading your post, I thought I heard you mention a boo-boo. Hmmmm...a boo-boo? What boo-boo? Everything is PERFECT to me:o)
