Have a MICE Halloween!!

So do you think I like Halloween or is it just the stamps!!!! I was determined to use these this year - I ordered them last year as part of a win at Simon Says Stamp but they didn't arrive in time for Halloween then. They are the House Mouse Halloween set. I have coloured the three mice with watercolour crayons. The sentiment is from a more recent purchase from ebay but SSS has them in stock - Inkadinkadoo All Hallows Eve. I separated the sentiment and inked around the edges using Tim Holtz distress inks - Scattered Straw and Tea Dye. Here is a closup........................



The background paper is from my latest find - Bearly Mine Designs - her papers are so sharp. I have used my Spellbinders Nestabilities Large Labels and Labels 8, which has been glittered with gold.

I am entering this card in the following challenges:-

Something Completely Different - Black and Orange,

Stampin' Bs Design - Fall Colours,

Creative Belli Challenge - Pumpkin and optional sketch,

Cute Card Thursday - What's Buggin You?,


Lots To Do - Plain and Simple,

Penny's Challenge - So long as it flies,

Polka Doodles - Something Spooky,

Tuesday Taggers - More than 2 legs and,


Let me know what you think.

Hugs
