House Mouse and Friends Birthday Card

Hi, Friends.....

You know me.....why enter a challenge early when you can "squeak" in with a last-minute entry?  lol...  So I made this fun birthday card using my Stampendous House Mouse - Gift for Kitty stamp that I recently bought.  So cute!!!  

This is the last day for entering the House-Mouse / Stampendous Challenge & Blog Hop where they ask us to use both a House Mouse image and a stencil technique. I used my Simon Says Stamp - Falling Snow stencil for a confetti background by "painting" (rather imperfectly!) through the holes with Distress Inks in Festive Berries, Blueprint Sketch, and Twisted Citron.  I think it just screams "Party!!"  :)

Other supplies used include:
Happy Birthday sentiment from Waffle Flower - On My Mark stamp set
Versafine Ink - Smokey Gray
Faber-Castell Art-Grip Aquarelle Watercolor Pencils
Crayola Watercolor Pencils
Aquabrush
Mixed Media Paper
Adhesive Rhinestones
Coredinations Cardstock
Scraps for matting and sentiment panel

Thank you for your visit today and for your sweet comments. They encourage me so much! I hope you are getting ready for a lovely weekend!!!!
