Honey Monster


I'm really excited and honoured to have been invited to join the fabulous team over at the House-Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge as a guest designer for the months of September and October, well you all know how much I love House Mouse so I'm sure you will understand how thrilled I am.

This is my second challenge and the theme for this fortnight is Monochrome, make sure you pop over the House-Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge blog for more details and to check out the fabulous DT inspiration and great prizes.

I used an adorable image from Joanna Sheen's House-Mouse Designs Gruffies stamps called Thanks a Bunch.


I have made a clean and simple card this time, my Gruffie has been coloured with ProMarkers and I have used papers from Pink Petticoat.  The border is a Fiskars edge punch and the sentiment labels are from LOTV.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Pattie's Creations Challenge 76 - Animals
The ABC Challenge - V for Very Cute
Crafty Calendar - Going on a Bear Hunt
Ready Teddy Go Challenge 26 - Summer Days
Challenges 4 Everybody Challenge 29 - Anything Goes
Creative Inspirations Paint - Anything Goes
One Stitch at a Time Challenge 182 - Anything Goes
PanPastel Challenge 38 - Anything Goes

Thank you for popping in today, don't forget to take a look at the House-Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge blog to check out the fabulous DT inspiration and join in with the Monochrome challenge.

It's such a sweet card with a great clean look! I often find it hard to find a spot for my tags, but I think I've complicated things by thinking I need to add it to something more than the card base. But the way you placed it up in one corner actually works really well!
