Black & White for House Mouse

Hi All,

It seems a while since I made a House Mouse card, but I have only missed the last challenge, but I am a bit late with this one, so maybe that's why.  The challenge on the HM Blog is Black and White, and although this should be easy - I found it hard not to colour this little bunny!  I chose Bumbles in the Bath, so tried to make it look like a bathroom scene and even tiled the walls (I won't give up the day job) and 'made' blind for the window!  I used Glitterflock for the bubbles and even 'spilled' some on the floor!  Papers are Papermania.

I am also entering this card in:
  Stamp & Doodle - Add an Animal
  Make It Monday - Anything Goes
  Dream Valley Challenge - Animals

I would just like to say 'hello' to Siobhan, my newest follower.

That's it for now, and thanks for looking and if you like what you see, please leave a comment and I will come and visit you.

  11. Hi Avril. I've just been having a lovely catch up with all you've been up to. You've been creating some gorgeous cards as always.
    I love all the detail on this lovely Housemouse card. The blind is great. The black and white works well, I would have struggled, I always think things need colour and you've proved they don't.
    Hope all is good with you.
    Hugs Lisax
