Good morning! Can you believe it's Thursday again already? and so time for another Challenge over at
I am a bit nervous this week as I am hostess for the very first time!! It took me while to think of a theme for my first Challenge but eventually I chose....
'Cute Critters'
So we would like to see cute animals. I'm hoping to see lots of cuddly teddy bears, fluffy Easter chicks/bunnies, cute owls, mice, monkeys! any animal as long as it is cute! It doesn't have to be a card, so you could make a Gift Box, Tag, altered item etc. - just as long as it fits the theme and has a cute critter on it!
We are sponsored this week by the fab Digi My World.
who are offering the winner a generous prize of $10 Voucher to spend in-store!!!
Annie at Digi My World very kindly gave us some images to play with. This cute little mouse is from a Set called Pip Squeaks V-Day. And if you are short on time then you can buy the set already digitally coloured!! How fab is that!
I have used a coloured digi and altered the tone slightly to go with my paper. I've also paper-pieced the hearts with pink paper to match.
The gorgeous background digital paper was a freebie from Bearly Mine Designs. Ribbon, butterfly and pearls are from stash. Sentiments are from Pink Petticoat. I've no idea why I decided to put two sentiments on this card? He must be a very 'loving' mouse!! LOL
and don't forget to pop on over to MAWTT for more details of the Challenge and to see my Teamies wonderful cute creations!! they are all gorgeous!
I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:-
Stamps R Us - 'Valentines/Love' ends 13th February 2012
Fab'n Funky - Challenge 107 - 'Love is In The Air' ends 14th February 2012
