HOUSE MOUSE & FRIENDS....Monday Challenge #12

A bit of a different challenge this week in the form of A RECIPE!.....ribbon, two buttons, felt and a scalloped edge!! It's been a while since i last entered, and somehow i've got myself more organised at the moment so i'm not constantly chasing my tail.....i have missed these gorgeous critters! :)It's so hard to get a decent photo now the summer has passed!

This cute image is stamped onto watercolour paper and then coloured with Distress inks and a water brush.....my favourite way of colouring in :)

I am sure someone out there knows the name of this stamp, maybe you could let me know.... a lovely lady called Sandra who attends my workshops ordered a load of new stamps from America and very kindly let me have a bit of a 'stamp fest', so i have loads of them ready to go, but i don't have the titles!!

Papers are Basic Grey 'Wassail' 6 x 6, along with a portion of Bazzill 'just the edge' which has been doodled with my Inkssentials pen. Prima poinsettia, Making Memories buttons, and the felt ric-rac is Papermania, the rub-on sentiment is by Letraset and ribbon and twine from stash!

Thanks for popping in today, take care and i'll see you soon ;-D............Carol x
