TRUFFLES

Before I start my post today, just a reminder.  Today is Veteran's Day in the United States.
We owe a debt of gratitude to the men and women that have served and are currently serving our country in the military. They sacrifice so much to protect and serve.  Thank a veteran today!!


Hi, hope your Thursday was good.  I went to a couple of the craft stores with my coupons today.  Had some retail therapy, always fees good!

Today's card is for the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge (MMSC) #129.  The House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge is sponsoring the challenge this month and we are so excited about that!


I have made my card following the sketch (I flipped it on it's side) and used a darling House Mouse Stamp, Yummy Treats, for my card.  The current challenge theme at House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge is Give Thanks/Thank You, so if you make a card using the sketch from Midnight Madness and a House Mouse image and theme, you can enter both challenges!


These little critters have gotten into this beautiful box of truffles and had their fill!

This is a fabulous card. A lot of beautiful coloring. Some of your elements are new to me, so thank you for listing them. (I don't know if my pocketbook will thank you- but what the heck). It is just so bright and cheery. How is Keeley doing today? I hope the swelling has gone down. It took several days for Daisey's eye lid to return to normal and the redness in the eye took about 5 days. Give a kiss for me please. Enjoy your weekend.
