Have a Mice Summer, folks!

Good morning, folks. This week I'll be posting a slew of House-Mouse® cards that I worked on for the April 2016 Catalog for Stampendous. Some of them even made it into the catalog, yeah!

Today's card missed the cut off with so many awesome samples done by the design team (you'll be seeing them this week if your hopping around during the theme week on the Stampendous blog, however it is a summer antic around our house! The French Open is showing right now and it's now on our television more than usual because we have a Tennis channel! My hubby is so excited about that. 

Be sure to stop by the Stampendous blog and to see hop through my teamies projects this week.
