This week we are showcasing Pretty Pink Posh and chose the Stitched Duo Craft Die.

I cut the image, coloured it with Heat embossed Acetate and then another cut of the Stitched Duo Craft Die. I glued them together, I cut some plain white card, added the the Neat and Tangled Mermaid Tail mixed sequins and attached them all together.

I made the May Arts Ribbon and coloured them with the Simon Says Inks of Sea Glass and Lavender.

House Mouse & Friends..........House Mouse and a Friend!!

Our Hostess this week is the fabulous LOLS and our theme is.....   

House Mouse and A Friend
any friend, it could be another House Mouse, Gruffie, Happy Hopper or even Tilda! as long as one of the friends is a House Mouse. You can also choose the Anything Goes option.

The image is the Gruffie Pebble who had I little chipmunk friend.  I cut out the Chipmunk and substituted a little mouse from a Joanne Sheen rubber stamp set.  

I struggled finding a suitable sentiment - I did think of naming it
"Poirot Gruffie (or Sherlock Gruffie) and the case of the poor Mudpie" but I thought it
almost looked like I had killed poor Mudpie.
There will be a REWARD for the person who can provide a perfect sentiment!!!
