TGIF! Wasn't it odd waking up to dark, cloudy skies this morning? I hope that with all the rain that is forecast, we don't end up with flash flooding anywhere... and our first few days of vacation on the Island look like it's going to feel like monsoon season, but Blaine & I will make the best of it! Packing the umbrella's, rain gear & rubber boots! ;) Today's the last day of our End of Summer sale - 50% off anything summer, vacation, beach, camping or travel! I have a few more classes to upload the class samples for, and the crop dates to be added to the calendar, but then, we're pretty well set until Christmas!! How's that for being organized and ahead of the game!! ;) I am here today from 10am until 4pm & look forward to seeing you... Cheers! :P

The words are always sung in my head when I hear the phrase, "These are a few of my favourite things..." so when I saw that the theme for August was going to be just that, I knew exactly what I was going to do!
Anyone who is close to me knows that I collect mice and that I love humming birds. So when I saw this House Mouse stamped image, I just had to colour it with my Spectrum Noir alcohol ink markers & use it for my first Design Team project this month!
I chose to frame my image using Karen's chipboard corners COR-485. I sprayed them a lovely spray from Tattered Angels called Dragon Fly. Once the spray had dried, I framed my image on the card, added a title & some embellishments & voilĂ !
I love how it all comes together so quickly & nicely!
So now it's your turn to join in this month's challenge & show us a few of your favourite things!!
Have fun creating! Thanks for looking -- CHEERS! :)
