It is time for another House Mouse and Friends Challenge. This is #290 and is an Anything Goes with the Option of Anything But a Card. Well, this looks like a card, right? Nope, wrong! It is a napkin holder cover. You would start with an idea for a card but then change it up!
First, when you hit your local dollar store, look for the clear plastic napkin holders. These also make really cute gifts, when you doodle them up! Next you will need an A2 envelope and seal the flap shut. Take off about 1/16 of an inch on the bottom so that it slits open. Now you get to decorate. If you want to do both sides, you will need a second envelope. Slide your creation down over the sides of the holders and add napkins.
For this I used:
Designer paper- from SU! and their Gingham Gala collection. My white is 110 lb cs.
Stamps- are Raining Confetti and Laughter & Love.
Die- is Gina Marie stitched squares
Ribbon- is SU!
Inks- are Crushed Curry and Balmy Blue
Embellishment- Wink of Stella and Nuvo Drops in Duck Egg Blue and Dandelion Yellow
Hard to believe how you blink, and the week i half over. Hope everyone is having a good one.

Oh my -- what an adorable little House Mouse! I love how you decorated the napkin holder with this cheery creation!
What a cute idea to make these napkin holders your own with a simple envelope! Love the yellow gingham and just think - you can make one for each month of the year or special occasions to dress up your table! Smart thinking and a cute creation to boot!
CUTE IDEA!!!! Love the napkin cover and of course that image just makes it even cuter still. LOVE IT!
