Welcome to House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge!
We are so glad you are here and just in time for the First BLOG-HOP of 2012!! It's going to be such a treat because it's also the very first challenge in which all of our New Design Team Members are joining in the fun! :)
Our sweet teamie Christine chose the theme this time-Love and Hearts!
Heyyyyyy....where are the meeces???
Oh here they are the little pranksters!
I made up a couple meece Valentine cards...I really want to send some out this year so I am trying to make doubles of everything I make. I cut a pretty little silhouette file , added the meeces and then made a little embellished belly band to hold them closed! I love cards that come together so easily- and this one was a jif!
We have wonderful inspiration and some yummy candy along the way, so don't miss out!
And we have wonderful sponsors of the hop as well!

Hello again Sue. This card is a great inspiration for alot of us I see, inspired me to finally become a follower...I visit your site almost daily, learn many things here...What did you use for the base of your card(heart cutout part)? Thanks for the opportunity to win this mouse stamp, as of yet I have none.
What a neat project! Great job, both versions are super adorable! I'll cross my fingers for the candy! You are too sweet!
wow your card is wonderful! I love how you have the image hidden inside the beautiful designs! I am a follower of your blog and want to thank you for the chance to possibly win your awesome candy!
Hi Sue, These are 2 very adorable cards!! The whole idea of hiding the mice is brilliant and your cut out frame is amazing!! I've been a follower for a while so I've got my fingers crossed I might be lucky with your cute candy. Must hop along now, this is great fun, love Jacky x
I love that you just casually cut something to wrap the lovely meeces in...and I love the term ' belly band ' ...love it all then really!

I would love to win any type of goodie since I love the mice and the stamp is adorable. I must check out that heart envelop type cut....very cool!
I've never seen anything quite like this before, but what a dazzler! I like both color versions equally, and that silhouette file you've used for an envelope is just amazing!!
Went through the whole blog hop and drooled and wished and wanted...haha I need to check out your cut of hearts...love it and would like to try. Now I need to go make 3 cards with one being for the challenge.
Wow what a super sweet card. Such a lovely idea. I have just become a follower.

very unique great job.
I love the envelope around your card
The "envelope" is gorgeous! Wish I could make those too!
Cute card!
Beautiful card. How funny...I just downloaded that same card cover at Silhouette. Hopping along now...
What a fun card, with its own built in lacey "envelope." Great card. I need to make one like it, minus the fancy cute out envelope but it is a long-forgotten technique. Thanks for sharing!
Oh, My! What a fantastic lacey card. How neat--I've never seen anything like it! :)
Love it! What else is there to say?....except what punch you used to get the "lace".
Sue, you created an absolutely stunning card as always. Love the filigree. I'm going to have to figure out how to do it without the machine.
Such an amazing card. Love is in the air.. Giving cards as a gift us enough to touch one's heart.
