Like me, my mice are not really party people. They'd be in the kitchen helping out, but Peggy says Mama Teeny has catered so well that there's no help needed. Like me, my mice don't really dance - the last time I did any dancing much was when I was in Irish College one summer... Like me, my mice bring their handiwork where they go - I had my knitting along with me last night. Hey Peggy - what's the French for cardigan? I couldn't think?
Check out the darling inspiration for the MMTPT73 tea-party hosted by Peggy this week. I thought that squirrels or chipmunks would still class as rodents and be a step up from mice (my dad, after a summer free from them, has admitted that they are back. Hopefully this time he won't feed them!!). But - I received a lovely little silver thimble in the post last week, so what better than these mice to say thank-you. I have seated them in Peggy's beautifully decorated underground hall where we are partying this week.
A2 base, matt gold card. The hall is decorated with paper from an old K&Co Christmas pad. I stamped the mice on the DP and twice on white card. Coloured with watercolour pencils, cut out and layered. I cut out an extra piece of paper to cover the original Have a Mice Day sentiment and wrote thanks, instead. Added some embroidery floss in the needle and tucked it behind the card. Fished out some spare embossed photo corners and prettied them up with a bit of Stickles...
Thank you Peggy for having us this week. I think I'll pass on your liqueur, though, and stick with the Baileys which I got on special offer last week!
