House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge-Olympics!


Olympics






Our very own Heather says-Let's Get into the spirit of the 2012 Summer Olympics!!!!

I am sitting here watching the women's gymnastics competition tonight. Such amazing talent! Wowser!

Well, here are Muzzy and Maxwell showing off their gymnastics skills for you today! Aren't they totally cute? 



With my silhouette I cut out a telephone "box" (or "booth" here in the US) like you would see in London and added the Olympic rings at the top.  I added some designed vellum behind the paneled door and printed off the word 'telephone' on my computer.

You can do just about anything for this challenge-circles from the Olympic design, use the Olympic colors, make it sports themed...pretty wide open for you all!

Our sponsors this challenge are :

$25 gift card from their store

I hope you will play along with us all for this fun challenge! Don't forget to cheer for you favorite Olympian!

    Stop it. This should be on the cover of the London Mail, or whatever the BIGGEST paper is in the UK. Seriously, it is adorable!!

    A telephone booth is something you no longer see here in the states, but I love that you thought to use that since London apparently still has them! Very cute and clever creation, as always :)
