Hello Friends. First, I want to apologize for not posting sooner. Second, just wanted to mention that the Fall is such a busy time of the year for Mommies of school age children. I have Four!!! With all the back to school stuff, fall sports & new activities - it leaves very little time for crafting. Which is why Im late, but thrilled to finally post again....
The First Card is for this week's House Mouse & Friends Week #52 Challenge. . That's right! It's our 1 year Anniversary! Yeah!! Come see us at HM&F & check-out the DT's choices for inspiration. Our Founder will generously give out Prizes to several of you who'll play along with us this Anniversary week! The challenge is to choose a FAVORITE HM&F challenge from the past year and recreate a new project.
For me, it was really tough to choose - as there were so many great options. I finally decided on combining "Moving" & "Multiple Images" as those were always big favorites! :) The trouble with my card is that I had just finished coloring the front Bunny only to realize that the movement actually shows the Bunny moving backwards, therefore, it's the rear Bunny that should have been colored! Ooops & Yikes!! Now, 'ya know there was absolutely no way that I was going to color a 2nd Bunny 'cuz I'm just not a fan of coloring! Besides, it takes me way too long to color! LOL
