Reaching for the Stars with "Lots of Layers"

Happy Monday Peeps!!  It's June and the children are finally out of school for the Summer.  There is lots happening this time of year like School/Sports ending, and Graduations, Father's Day, Birthdays, Fourth of July, Weddings, Thanks You's, ... so as crafters, we've got many opportunities for using our handmade cards. :)

We are half-way through the current "Lots of Layers" challenge HMFMC171, at House-Mouse and Friends. So be sure to stop by. You'll be inspired by the amazing Designers' samples. Sure would love for you to play along with our Mousey Team by creating a project featuring any of the HMD House-Mouse, Gruffies and, or, Happy Hoppers. You'll have fun and could win some fabulous prizes. 

Here is my take with a Mousey reaching for the stars with all those layers... heheh :)
