Makey Bakey Mice and a bit of Flower Power


Well what a lovely sunny weekend we have been blessed with - makes me feel like summer is really here!

I have been a busy bee today, washing everything I can get my hands on and getting it on the line to dry, and cleaning up around the house.

Now it's time to sit down with a cuppa and treat myself to a little blog time before a little wander round the lake in the evening sunshine I think…….bliss!!

Today I'm showing a card that I made a while back for my mother in law but, I never posted this one to date as it didn't have any actual stamping in it.

This card has been made using the Makey Bakey Mice CD and I picked a lovely little image from the decoupage section to play with, plus some lovely DPs from the same CD.

I used my grand nests to die cut the card shape (sadly a little to big to go in a 6x6 envelope, so I didn't think that one through properly!), and as you can se, I have thrown a bit of everything at this card……doily, lace, ribbon die cuts and pearls. So really, when you think about it, this card was probably just as much work as colouring a card in anyway!

This ended up being quite a busy card for me, embellishment wise, but sometimes it's just really nice to get all your stuff out and make something a bit special don't you think?

So of course, I would like to enter a few challenges today, and here they are:
