Good Monday morning!  The House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge is celebrating!  It's our second anniversary!  So, to show our appreciation of your support over the past two years, we are having a blog hop, which includes lots of fun, surprises, and PRIZES!

THE BLOG HOP

First, you must enter a card for the challenge using the sketch.  Then, visit each design team member's blog.  Each team member will have a picture of a House Mouse with a certain number of pieces of cheese at the bottom, displayed on their blog.  Add up all the pieces of cheese, then go back to the House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge site and leave a comment with the number of total pieces of cheese. At the end of the blog, if your name is picked for a prize, you will have had to have posted the total pieces of cheese there were to receive the prize.  If you were unable to give the correct number, another random number will be picked.

So if you're coming from Scoopy Sue's Blog, your in the right place.

Oh this is a wonderful card, with the special fold only adding to it! I have yet to try one of those folds but will someday. Just fabulous! BTW, I love your Niagara Falls photo. I went to college in Buffalo and spent a lot of time near the falls, and in the gorge (when I was MUCH younger). Love your doggie too.

I love your House Mouse card.. very creative and I like the folding of it.. that is just great! Nice to think also that your first stamp was a PSX stamp.. so was mine but I had bought mine at an auction. I love to find rarer stamps.. used or not.. it's nice..House Mouse however is my favorite line to work with right now or I should say collect although the collection is coming along slowly.. lol. Anyway.. I will be making my card for the challenge sometime later today or tomorrow.. and will post it.. sounds like such a great giveaway!Have a great day!
