Hey All! Hope you are all well! Today is a really special day for House Mouse And Friends Monday Challenge Blog. For the first time ever, we are having a BLOG HOP!!!! There is so much that is "new" today. Not only are we going to see the creations of our brand new designers, our blog has changed to a new look too. Wait till you see the blog hop candy!
It is awesome. PLUS, some of the blogs have even MORE HIDDEN BLOG CANDY! (You can see the pics of those prizes on the main blog) So much fun! The theme of the challenge this week is "Saying Good-bye". Here is my card for this week's challenge:
It is awesome. PLUS, some of the blogs have even MORE HIDDEN BLOG CANDY! (You can see the pics of those prizes on the main blog) So much fun! The theme of the challenge this week is "Saying Good-bye". Here is my card for this week's challenge:
We are heading into the official vacation season here, so I thought this was a good card for saying "good-bye". Don't those little mice look perfectly comfy and ready for their long road trip? The stamp is called "Are We There Yet?" I colored this image with my colored pencils and oms. I sponged the sky with light blue Colorbox ink. I've never used the teal and chocolate brown color combo before, and I kinda like it. The sentiment was stamped with Versamark ink and then embossed with detail ep. That's why it looks so shiny in the photo.
OK, time for the blog hop directions.
