House Mouse Monday Challenge #133


     Here is a card I created for the latest challenge on the House Mouse Blog.  This time the theme is "I am thankful for......" , with the focus on babies!   I decided to use my Butterflight HM stamp.  For some reason I find this image hard to color.  However, I am pleased with how it came out this time.  My designer paper is embossed and is from K&Co.  Coloring was done with Copics and image was cut with Classic Square Spellbinders.  The sentiment is from an old SU set called Riveting.  I added ribbon, floss, pearls, Stickles, and MS butterflies as embellishments.

     It is snowing here, and the roads and ground are all covered!  It looks so pretty!  Thanks for visiting today!

No one would ever know you had a problem coloring this butterfly mouse. It came out lovely. Your whole card is stunning. I love the colors and that double bow is super nice. I always have a problem with "baby" theme myself. I'm trying to come up with something, but I'm not sure my mind is going to wrap around this one. We are waiting for your snow now. It is suppose to get here this afternoon and evening. Stay safe
