Well here we are, half way through the House Mouse Monday challenge period, and I am finally getting a chance to put up my post. Challenge #115 is an inspirational photo challenge that is issued by design team member Lorraine. Here is what she came up with.
The wrapper from the chocolate heart looked perfect for paper piecing, so I went with it. I added some tiny cupcakes from an IO set I had, gave my mouse a bakers twine hair bow, put on some bling. and called it done!
Coloring was done with Copic Markers, sponging is with VersMagic ink, and my image was cut out with Spellbinders, Labels Twenty-Two.
I want to thank everyone for all the well wishes sent for my DH. Right now we are at a no better, no worse stage, with a DR that is on vacation. Besides the early moring fog that we have been experiencing, the weather has been glorious! Hope you are enjoying the same.
UPDATE: Just got a call that the Dr. wants the DH admitted to the hospital. What a difference a few minutes can make, huh? Please keep him in your prayers.

Well, I've been wondering about your man. Hope he gets better soon. Oh my goodness, another HM post! Look at you go, girl! What a cute card, and how much fun to 'have' to go shopping for an image! This is perfect for the challenge, my friend - love it!
The lack of a stamp will not keep our Mary Anne down -- she's going to come through one way or another!!

OH my Gosh, the dr suddenly wants your DH hospitalized? After he's been suffering for days?! What the??!?!! I'll be keeping him in my prayers - I'm so concerned for both of you.
The card is just darling, and I love the cupcake wrapper with all those colors! A super cute card for the HM challenge!

Mary Anne,
This turned out spectacular! Love those cupcakes. I hope you guys are OK, I will keep everyone over there in my prayers.
So cute, You did a great job with the challenge. I have a cupcake stamp, but just not have had much time to play lately (with moving everything out of my craft room) You WENT to my favorite store...Wow! I hope to go in a few weeks for my birthday. At least, hubby promised me we go there for my birthday. We did that last year, he went with me, and used the stamp room too.
speaking of husbands...I will say a prayer for yours that everything goes okay. Please keep us updated. Hugs, Jill
Keeping DH in my prayers... keep us posted! Super dooper adorable card!
Such a cute card Mary Ann. I love the little bow! Will keep your husband in my thoughts!
Wow, hope your hubby is alright, that is so scary, prayers to you both :) Your card is adorable, such a sweet little mouse and it all looks so yummy. We are dealing with a tornado watch right now, guess it is the start of the season.
Hope they get him on the right track to heal everything! am praying this doesn't require any surgery...
