House Mouse Challenge #39

Whew!! Is it just me or does it take everyone hours to make a card?!! I can't whip one out in 30 minutes or even an hour. Oh, well. I needed to make a birthday card for my Aunt. Not sure exactly how old she will be but I know she's in her 80's. She lives in Florida so I don't get to see her very often. She loves mice so I know she will love the House Mouse stamps. The house mouse challenge for this week is to make a birthday card so I thought I would enter it in the challenge.

I colored the stamp using prismacolor pencils and odorless mineral spirits and I covered the candles with blue glitter glue.

I stamped one of the mouse out twice colored it and raised it with foam dots.
Thanks for looking! Ya'll have a wonderful day!

SUPPLIES:

printed paper and ribbon from paper studio, House Mouse stamp, Prismacolor pencils, odorless mineral spirits, foam dots, blue glitter glue, "Birtday Wishes" stamp for charm is by Hero Arts, and craft wire to hang the charm.
