Happy Valentine's Day...

from the little mice's, meeses, mice...whatever...

at the Garber household!

 

 

At Christmas time, one of these little guys was caught in a jar!

 

 

But since then, they have been running amuck in my house!

Stampendous' House Mouse's and Happy Hoppers are everywhere!

 

Now they have taken over my front entrance on my Valentine wreath!

 

Greeting all who come to my door with a friendly

"Happy Valentine's Day!"

 



 

Peeking out from behind roses and the bow,

and making sure everything is arranged just so!

 

 

My UPS delivery guy was chuckling when I opened the door!

He commented how much his young daughter would enjoy these sneaky little fellas!

I can't wait for my own grandson to see it!

 

I am entering these seven little cuties in the challenge at the

House Mouse Design's Challenge,

"Show some Love",

Stampendous' Impressions,

"Love Letters",

Gruffies and Guests,

"Love is in the Air"

and

Sunshine Mail

"Anything with a heart"

challenges.

 

As a design team member, I will also be posting this on the blog for

"Stampin' for the Weekend" as it incorporates the

"Flowers"

theme for the week of the 14th!

They are also having a great prize challenge!

Who doesn't want more flowers this holiday? 

 

(I used a clearanced $1.20 green pine wreath from Christmas, shaped it into a heart, and spray painted it white.

The rest was easy with  my Copics and some very

patient fussy-cutting!)

 

Give a BIG hug to someone you love!

Happy "Birth" day!

The current challenge over at

"Stampin' for the Weekend's" blog

is to make a birthday project!

We all have friends or relatives with upcoming

New Year birthdays sometime in the next few months,

so get out your stamps, markers, pencils,

medium of choice, etc. and make a

BIRTHDAY PROJECT!

 

This can be a simple card, or something a bit more decorative like I did!

 

 

I used one of my all-time favorite sponsors (Saturated Canary)

and

made this very cute frame to celebrate my new granddaughter's actual BIRTH!

I can replace the photo regularly as she grows older.

 

(just a note:  the photo and mat ARE level, but the wicker frame was so "off", that it was impossible to make it all look straight.  Still a heck of a find for 75cents at Goodwill!))

 

 

I love the adorable images at Saturated Canary!

So fun to color! 

I even "scuffed' her shoes a bit!

 

 

So head over to "Stampin' for the Weekend" and get in on the fun!

There are always great prizes there!

This challenge is sponsored by "LIVE AND LOVE CRAFTS"!

 

Have a great week!

"Something Spooky"

Yep, there's some real spookiness going on over at

Stampin for the Weekend!

 

The challenge is to create something spooky for the holiday!

 

Easy enough with all those terrific images out there!

 

I chose to use one of my favorite sponsors,

Saturated Canary!

She's gorgeous and rather scary at the same time!

 

 

 

Image used:

"Withering Fairy"

 

Colored with Copics, and paper used is Graphic 45.

 

Have fun, and create something really scary! LOL!

New Stampin' for the Weekend Challenge!

Well, here I am!

Finally ready to buckle down again and start creating on a regular basis!

You have no idea how happy I am to feel well enough to be making projects again!

 

As a new design team member of
Stampin' for the Weekend,
 I have this adorable Stamp Fairy image card in celebration of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. 

Everyone hears every day how important it is to get your yearly mammogram, but how many people actually follow through each and every time?

I purposely have mine on or around my birthday in November, which means it's just around the corner.  I will be calling and scheduling my next visit very soon.

+ 

The image is Stamp Fairy's  "Molly Fairy 3", and my papers are
DCWV, Birthday Wishes 6 x 6 Stack.

I love coloring with my Copics, but felt this little gal needed a nicely printed fussy-cut dress.
 

 

 Inside of card!

 

 

Please join us at Stampin' for the Weekend for the current challenge,

"Anything Goes".
The sponsor is Stamp Fairy, so if you have any, we'd love to see them! 

 

Also, don't forget to have your mammogram when it is due.

The life you save could be your own.

 

 

Thanks for looking today!
