Friends of mine recently sold their home and moved and this is the card I made for them as they settled into their new home. The little mouse made himself comfy cozy in that giant flower blossom and took a little snooze. I kept this one simple, coloring with Copics, cutting with Little Inker stitched rectangle dies and layering with green and gold colors to match the flower. The sentiment is from Avery Elle.
I'm sharing this with the House-Mouse & Friends Monday challenge #301 - anything goes with an option of "outdoor fun."
Also sharing with 2 Crafty Critter Crazies challenge #31 - anything goes but you must use a critter on your creation
Thanks for stopping by and I hope the first day of October has been a good one for you. Our summer has been extended a few more days and we're expecting temperatures to hit 92F tomorrow! Unheard of!

Love your cute House Mouse card. I love that he's having 40 winks. It's nicely colored and layered. Soon he'll have to move over so the birds can get the seeds. Thank you for joining us at House Mouse and Friends Monday challenge. {Bunny} Designer for House Mouse and Friends
