This will be my first time for entering one of my cards in the House Mouse challenge. I have tried hard to decide if I should submit this card. I will just say it isn't may best effort LOL but as many challenges it took me longer than any other card I have made this year!
This challenge was ..... challenging for me as I do not own a Valentine related HM stamp. I created this card using an image I received from my good friend, Jenny. I love the image!! and the card actually looks pretty good in real life but the camera.... oh well for what it is worth here it is! : ) no more excuses! heeheehee
I wanted to create a masculine-ish card because I will give it to my darling for Valentines Day. I used Stampin' up papers for the solid card stock and a little scrap of an unknown company for the printed paper. I stamped conversation hearts all over the brown and pink paper - though the picture doesn't show them. I also embossed the printed strip of paper with the "Heart Blocks" Cuttlebug embossing folder. The satin ribbon is by "American Crafts" and the resin flower is by "All my Memories". I colored just a couple of the hearts with a blush colored pencil and I colored our furry friends with chalk. The "I Love You!" sentiment is by The Angel Company. Thank you for looking and please come back I promise I'll do better next time! : )

I love it Patti! I'm so glad you chose to do the challenge. Isn't it fun? Your card is perfect!
Thanks Susan, By the way the mice aren't really blue green like they look in this picture! LOL
me.
You shouldn't be apologizing for your card, it is darling!! Good luck!!
I think it's darling! I'm glad you entered the challenge this week. They can be addicting. BTW - I don't have very many HM stamps either. I do have a lovely friend named Susan who stamps them for me so there's nothing wrong with that.
