Hello, hope your first day after the long holiday was a good one. I spent the morning cleaning and dusting through. Was a beautiful day, so felt obligated to pull some weeds in the yard in the afternoon. Despite the heat of the day, the nights are cooling off and there is a definite fall feel in the air. Today's card is for the House Mouse Challenge. The challenge was to create something based on the title of a song. What fun this was. I started by checking out all my house mouse stamps and when I came across this little guy, I decided on Take Me Out to the Ball Game. I printed the sheet music out from online (for free). I made it
a lot smaller on my copier and tore around the edges and distressed. The circle behind the image I drew lines on and stitching to make it look like a baseball. The stars are stickers. Paper is from Nana's kids. Thanks for stopping by. Until tomorrow..........................

Hi Sue - just fabulous - love it!!
Fabulous, adorable image and brilliant work with the stitching on the ball.
Thanks so much for playing along with us at HM&F.

This is really cute, Sue! I love that image and how you colored it. Also the love how you printed off the music and distress it! Our Creative Corner is having a stars and stripes challenge, this would fit right in there for it too!
What a beautiful card Sue,i love the image and papers.

The sheet music is such a great and creative addition to this challenge! Super job! Love your card. Best, Curt
So cute! love the sheet music with it!
Sue, this is just perfection. You've done a fab job, as always -- and a great tip for downloading music, I've always wondered what would be considered "safe" insofar as sheet music is concerned, to use in our crafting. You've chosen a great song to use for this challenge and did your usual detail in everything, including "enhancing" the music.
Everything about this card is perfect...and it fits so well with the challenge!
Ohhh, that is a fabulous idea with printing off the music sheet, and I just love what you decided on for the HM challenge, you've coloured wonderfully, and enhanced that baseball perfectly. Great choice of papers for a male card.
