Finally meeting a Wonderful Friend!

Well I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend...
 Mine has been full.  My Mom came down from Arizona
 and My daughter and me took her shopping all day
 and what a great time we had.. Then we meet up with
 my sister and did some more shopping
I can't believe my mom keep up with us..

I was so wound up when I got home I
thought I would do a card Challenge..
So here it is... This card is for two different Challenge.
The first on is a sketch challenge from
 Crazy for challenges
and the second Challenge is for
The Shabby Tea Room....
The challenge is to used warm colors or strips..

So this is what I came up with I just love these little
 House Mouse stamps I just think they are adorable...
 It's been awhile sense I have used them.

How fun that you got to meet a blogging friend in person, and how cute your card is. I love those colors, and the House Mouse stamp is just too cute. I have a few of those myself. I need to get them out and dust them off as they are just too much fun. Thanks for playing along with us in the Tea Room.
