Little Scraps of Heaven Calendar 2

Here is my completed page for my Little Scraps of Heaven themed calendar for 2013. I was inspired to make these calendars by the Copic/Promarker group at The Outlawz.

PCP Recipe Swap

Over at Paper Craft Planet I joined in a House Mouse Card/Recipe swap in The HM Group. My swap partner Maria is living in Germany and this is the card and recipe I sent to her. I chose this card because I read she plays an instrument and I had made this card inspired by the song I love a rainy night by Eddie Rabbit for a previous challenge. The recipe has been a favorite in my family for as long as I can remember and I hope she loves it as much as we do!

I love these Mieces to Pieces!

I won my choice of House Mouse stamp for playing in the challenge over at Paper Craft Planet. I chose this stamp for my freebie! Isn't this little guy adorable....lol...

I'm Terrific!

This adorable little card was created and inspired by two separate challenges. The first challenge being Paper Craft Planets House Mouse Challenge Sketch, and the second being the Copic/Promarker challenge at The Outlawz. If you haven't stopped in at either web site you should they have a lot of fun creating! 

For the Copic/Promarker challenge: My card was inspired by the children's book written by Marjorie Weinman Sharmat’s and Kay Chorao’s picture book I’m Terrific.

Eagles Soar in the Creative Freebie Challenges

If you know me, you know I love the outdoors. I most especially love photographing  birds. It is a frustrating hobby at times chasing a bird around a tree or across a state park trying to get that great shot only for the bird to fly away on you, or you have your klutz moment because you had the camera in your face and wasn't watching where you were going. 

The Eagle in the photograph  in my card above was drawn by Anne Fenton for the Creative Freebie Challenge over at The Outlawz. It reminded me of our trip to the boundary waters of Canada/United States by way of Ely, Minnesota and we took a john-boat out on Fall Lake and spotted an eagles nest. I took as many photos as I could of the eagle and its nest. If you would like to have beautiful images like this to use for your cards and projects you should come play in the Creative Freebie challenges!

House Mouse - Mice Are Hungry Too!

Oh my talk about cutest littlest mouse ever, don't ya just love the mieces to pieces!! Look at the card & recipe I received from Germany! I love how Maria turned her card into a piece of cheese!! This was perfect since the recipe for the swap at Paper Craft Planet had to consist of cheese in it. Maria was so sweet to include a magnet she had made of Germany, it is the coolest!! My fridge loves it!

House Mouse - Feed the Mice!

Isn't this card adorable!! I received this from Canada! This card was made by Josie the hostess of the Mice Are Hungry Recipe Swap at Paper Craft Planet. Each participant of the recipe swap was to make a card with a House Mouse or HM image and a recipe to feed the mice with. Josie was a sweet sneaky mouse and sent a recipe to everyone in the swap as the rest of us has designated partners to swap with.
