House Mouse Monday Challenge 232-NEW Friends Mid Way Reminder











Challenge  #232 Mid Way Reminder


Lots and lots of New Designs and Products!
Interpret this anyway you'd like and just tell us what is NEW about your project! Could be anything New, New theme, New Year, New Celebration... up to YOU. As always, we have the Anything Goes Option!



New Friends

Hello mousie lovers!  My card today is a throw back from the "olden days" of my stamping years.  In the beginning of my stamping days, I only had these little single meece stamps and I would put them in all types of scenario's-they were at my mercy!  I belonged to a Yahoo House Mouse group and that was sort of standard practice with us all. I stumbled across a card the other day made by Dorothy Spier-she was the master of getting the most out of her single stamp meecies-bless her heart. Dorthy has since passed away and I cherish each of her creations!

 I decided when I saw this fun Valentine Cut file from the Silhouette Store, it would be perfect to slip in a few meece! I did enlarge the card so I could invite a few more critters to the party! (The finished size is 4.25 x 6)



 Here is just a small pile of my individual house mouse stamps.  You could use meece cut out of scenes as well----if you are needing just a  mouse or two!


I had my Scan N Cut2  cut out the meece...quick and simple, although there were a few casualities in the cutting of the meece-a couple lost tails and..can you find the poor mousie that lost a part of his ear?  Normally I would just rescan the images to have them cut right, but because I knew they would be tucked in under the hearts I just went with it! 



I am sharing with the following challenges:
