What with all of the reorganizing I've been doing in my craft room, I've discovered lots of things I'd forgotten I had, including this adorable House Mouse image. I don't even know the last time (if ever) I made something for one of the many stamping challenge blogs out there, but I decided to give it a go when I realized that the House Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge this week is for Circles, Polka Dots & All-around Fun. Hopefully this card fits the bill! I colored in the image with dye ink from a variety of very (very) old - but still juicy! - Close to My Heart ink pads (just push the closed lid down onto the ink pad, then use a moist paint brush to pick up the ink from the inside of the lid). The polka dot paper is also pretty ancient and the name of the manufacturer escapes me, darn it. I made this card with the fold at the top; that way the card can be used for English or Hebrew.

Love this! I just posted my card and realized we used the same stamp and colors! Great minds think alike! :)

Very clever!!!I like the card a lot. I think you should start your own line of greeting cards. They sure would sell quickly.
