Okay, I've been being "strongly encouraged" to try out some House Mouse stamp images and I've been running scared. I saw that the FS, Versamom, made some House Mouse cards, so I figured it was time to get up the nerve.
I did my first funny card last week and now here is my first "cute" House Mouse card thanks to an image sent to me by the one and only Lovely Linda!!! I tried my best Linda!! I also had Stacy #twinshappy# send me lots of HM images which I will be using in the future if I didn't fail on this one anyway!!! LOL!! I was happy to use the sparkly flowers and the plum pearls I received from Stacy #twinshappy#. They just kind of fell into place perfectly with this card. Thanks Stacy!!!
I'm a little uncomfortable using the new in colors, but really wanted to venture into them, so I took Versamom's soft white card and turned it into a color extravaganza!!!
Thanks Versamom, Linda and Stacy for encouraging me to think outside my "serious" box!!
Thanks for taking the time to look and if you have a chance, let me know what you think!

Oh, Pam, this is so sweet! Pun intended! Great job casing Versamom and I love the colors, you did an awesome job with them. It is taking me awhile to get comfortable with them too! Your coloring is absolutely perfect! TFS!!!

Pam, you do so splendidly both inside and outside the box! This is so adorable! I love your bold colors with this cute image. And your coloring is fantabulous. The House Meeses aren't so easy to color, are they?!!! I love 'em, but need a good chunk of time to make a card with them as I am the world's SLOWEST colorer! LOL
I have a few House Mouse stamps, so please let me know which one's you have already received images for and I'll send more if they aren't duplicates! I've been scratching my head over what to send you after your last spectacular RAK that was so close to your heart. So maybe this will be a start ... hugs!

Fantastic job! And we "will" be seeing more or your HM creations...right?! ;) They really are not hard to color -- all the detail is there in the stamps. And what a wonderful photograph you took!!
