Rose Hip House Mouse

Hi Everyone, Well! me and my Blogger problems. I went in yesterday to add comments, and each Blog I went into that had Captcha on it, wouldn't let me comment. I did go back in after a little playing and I think I corrected it? BUT, if you haven't had a comment from me it's because I am still trying to fix Captcha with Firefox. I seem to be having one issue after another. My apologies. I have seen your cards and they are awesome, BUT sorry about the comments.

My card today has something I haven't used in a while, background paper! I have had this little mouse on my desk for an age, he deserved to be used, I made a comment on Lee's blog a while ago and she kindly sent me a few different stamped images I could colour. This was amongst them. SO cute.

I decided to use paper with roses on, he is in a cup of Rose Hip Tea after all. I printed the digital paper and cut it to fit a 5 x 7 card. I then went looking for rose dies, I don't have any the size I wanted, so digital dies it had to be, I cut them with my Cameo and layers to add some sparkle. I die cut the image to size and coloured it with markers for the pattern on the cup and DI's for the rest. After assembling it all, I added it to the card. I was really pleased, then noticed I hadn't added the banner straight! I don't think the recipient will notice, I hope!

This is so sweet Faith .. cute image, and love your use ofdigital dies (totally beyond my understanding .. I’m in awe!). I do sympathise over the commenting .. I can’t comment on any embedded comments blogs on my iPad, plus I have this anonymous problem sometimes …I saw your helpful blog link but wow so much work involved to fix it … I will get round to it but not yet 🤣🤣

Such a cute little mouse, and a lovely combination of pens papers, cut-outs etc. The day I get a banner on straight the family won't believe it is from me! A lovely card. Kate x

Sorry to hear you are still having trouble-I use firefox and have you tried having two pages open,click on comment then on other page and straight back again and usually lets me comment? Love the cute image and beautiful P.paper-the banner looks fine to me.

This is lovely Faith, the little mouse is so cute and the background paper is really pretty. I usually do my blog reading on my iPad when I’m having my early morning cuppa and so far I’ve not had any problems commenting so wonder if it is browser related. I know others are having problems so whatever it is really annoying xx

The green polkadots set everything off so well, it's that mouse's fault if things are crooked! LOL I never ever got into the House Mouse thing, tho I know it's a Big Deal for many. Well, I just Googled and ended up at Amazon. Oh dear. I.Shall.Resist!!!! I will try not to think they remind me of Stuart Little. I very much see the attraction now. Anyway, oops, thought you'd gotten home free but Blogger is still being a pest. I'm so thankful I got a comment from you. Hope it clears up! Good weekend, XOX

House Mouse/Mice? are so very sweet, and brighten up any design, but your card is just glorious. All of the beautiful roses, House Mouse and your fabulous colouring combine to make this sunny card.

Blogger problems seem to be the bane of all of us at the moment and no one seems to really know what is going on. One crafting friends is beginning to believe it is a plot to get all of us to start new blogs! It's a thought.

That designer paper is a perfect match to this adorable image! I love the added roses and banner too. I seem to be adding everything askew these days and slightly tilted. I work hard at correcting it, but things still look crooked to me when I'm finished. I guess it comes with age? LOL (at least that's my excuse) Sorry for your computer woes - they seem to be affecting all of us these days in one way or another. Hang in there and take care!
