Open Wide!

It's time for a fabulous new challenge at the House-Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge and this fortnight our theme is:  Pop It Up chosen by Lori.

For my card I've used a fabulous image from Joanna Sheen's House-Mouse Food and Drink 2 Decoupage Pack and papers from Pink Petticoat.


I die cut the scalloped border with a Clearly Besotted die, the flower is from Craftwork Cards and the sentiment, ribbon and brads are from my stash.


My image has been popped up on several layers of card stock as well as being decoupaged.

We have two fabulous sponsors this time:

Hi, Pauline! Whenever I see this image, I am reminded of the story between Heaven and that Other Icky Place. A visitor said he could not see the difference between the two places - everything looked the same, except in Heaven, everyone was cheerful and well-fed. In the Other Place, everyone was emaciated and sad, even though there was an abundance of food. In both places, each person had been given long spoons with which to eat. In the Icky Place, they could find no way to feed themselves, for the spoons were too long. But in Heaven, they fed each other, reaching out with the long spoons. Anyway, that's what this particular HM image always reminds me of. :-)

Now, back to your delightful card LOL LOVE it of course! Fabulous layering in the background, and wonderful color combination! hugs, de
