A new challenge starts today over at FarmQuest and our theme is "Dandelions" along with our standard 'Something Farm/Country.' Very simple this fortnight and I'm sure you have some kind of dandelion image in your vast collection of stamps. :-D So why not whip up something and enter it into our challenge?
I chose a House Mouse stamp from my rather large collection of those, and stamped it using a stone gray ink pad from Tim Holtz. I colored it with ProMarkers and cut it with a simple rectangle die from QuicKutz. I found a scrap of paper in the basket and used a larger die from that same set to cut a frame for the image. The other two paper layers in the background are also pieces from the scrap basket and I'm guessing they were left over from St. Patrick's cards done sometime in the past year or two.
I printed and cut the sentiment with the smallest QuicKutz rectangle die from the set. Lot of layers of paper but pretty simple in design and very flat for easy mailing.

This image is just as sweet as can be and just perfect for the challenge! I love these stamps and don't pull them out near enough any more! Thanks for sharing your cute inspiration to remind me!
Every time I see this image I think of my mother yelling at us kids to NOT blow on the dandelion because it spread and would make more weeds! Who could resist the fun of blowing on them? I love this cute card. Thanks for joining us at HMFMC. {Bunny} Designer for House Mouse and Friends
Super cute card Connie :-) I love this image, and it does remind me of days spent making a wish when blowing them as a child haha.

This image brings back sweet childhood memories. We used to tie the stems together for headbands, bracelets and necklaces, not to mention blowing the seeds around. Thanks for sharing your lovely card with us at the Jan's Digi Stamps Challenge.
