House Mouse and Friends Challenge-Make Wishes Come True!







Wowser....did we have a great 2012 House Mouse and Friends Blog Hop or what???!  I have met so many new friends and got to look at some DANDY house mouse creations! Almost 100 cards were entered in the blog hop challenge...how cool is that???!!!!

The challenge this week is Make a Wish Come True...pretty open to interpretation I would say. I hope you can join in for this challenge.  Our dear Heather chose this challenge sponsored by  Simon Says Stamp!  A $25 gift card to SSS!


The card I made makes me smile! A great little meece image and the perfect papers to compliment it!

I used the sketch challenge from My Time Made Easy named Pretty Patterns Sketch #47...love the way they added the sentiment.  I used a computer generated sentiment...easy to make the words fit the circle punch that way.  After I took the photo, I figured  I should have added a flame to the candle. Oh well, done deal now!



 The mouse and strawberry are added on dimesionals. I used the end of a big round embossing tool to make the images rounded for a fun effect.


  I hope you can join in for challenge #113 at House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge! 


All the prizes will be announced in the next day or so, so make sure to pop over and check it out!

    I cannot get over how fantastic this card is! I love your background papers and the cleverly presented sentiment. The stamp is so cute and perfectly colored. In fact, your strawberry looks better than most of the ones I've seen at the grocery store lately--LOL!
