There were a couple of challenges this week that had warmth as their idea. I've been wanting to ink up a house mouse stamp that I've had for a while and this was a great excuse.
When I inked it up and stamped it I got ink smudges around the image. I probably should have called my blog "Ink Everywhere", because that's ususally what happens! Well, I decided to fussy cut it out. Then I thought, they need a floor to lay on. So I used a wood grain folder. That didn't look right, so I embossed some brick for a wall. I liked that. But it was too plain. I remembered the picture frame stamp and hung that on the wall. The little mouse hole finished it off. I think it is so cute. I just love these stamps!
I'm entering it in Open-minded Crafting Fun (Warmth ;food or clothing), Gruffies and Guests (Anything Goes), Crafting by Design (Think Warm Thoughts), and Kaboodle Doodles (Baby, It's Cold Outside).
Thanks for stopping by!

How darling! I love it. I wanna be all cozy, snuggled up and asleep. Alas, there is work to be done and a little girl tearing things apart as we speak. Super cute card, Brenda! Love the brick.
