Well Hello

Greetings---

Today its turned a bit muggy outside, but still liveable enough to have the windows open since the temps are in the mid 70's.

I popped into my craft room to make a quick cardfor Double D Challenges - Starts with M and Inky Paws Challenge - Floral Theme.  I absolutely love these garden mice from Newton's nook, and paired with their daisy stamp I am loving this sweet square card.



I stamped and colored the mouse first, using a bold magenta for the bloom.  Then I masked the image off and stamped the daisy bunch twice.  I colored the daisy in pale green, pale yellow and a touch of gray on the petals. 

  

Thanks for visiting.

Ohhhhh, how adorable! Kinda funny, too, 'cause I colored one of the garden mice today for the Double D challenge. The mouse with the tulip. However, I'll wait till Monday to share it. I really love your mouse with the daisies behind it and the sentiment tucked into the corner. So cute!!

Love that daisy background and the (slightly) muted colours. You are definitely on form at the moment. The way the sentiment neatly tucks into the corner is brilliant too xx

Absolutely adorable. I was surprised that was from Newton. I thought it was a mouse house at first. Love the composition you put together for this card.
