Class Clown!


     The newest  challenge at House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge #269 , is Anything Goes with the option of Back to School.  I know some children go back really early, but most of our schools just got out last week. The snow days had to be made up.

     The card starts with a white base and designer papers from a collection called Bloom by Crate Paper.  I used 2 Spellbinder die sets.  One is Blossom and the other is Standard Circles Sm..  My House Mouse stamp used is called Class Clown.  My sentiment is from a Hero Arts set.  I added Nuvo drops and some stamped dots from a Judith stubby, to create my background.  There was also distressing done with a dirty blue sponge... LOL.  There could be any color on there!  My last embellishment is a piece of yellow twine with a couple school themed charms, which I attached with Glue Dots.  There is an apple and a chalk board with a math problem.  I am trying to use these things in my stash, more and more.

     It was great fun to create and I am hoping the background is not too girly, so I can send it to my GS.  It was so nice to have a day off with the sun shining and blue skies.  Have a happy Tuesday!

Beautifully detailed and such a cute mousie too! I just love those little charms - they add so much to a card, but unfortunately add too much extra postage as well!

An fascinating discussion is worth comment. I feel that you must write more on this topic, it won't be a taboo topic however typically persons are not enough to speak on such topics. To the next. Cheers real money casino
