The inspiration for this card came from a favorite childhood book: Whose Mouse Are You by Robert Kraus. The book was obviously written in the 1970's so I used Pumpkin Spice, Moonlit Fog, and Smoky Slate cardstock as well as some Basic Grey Ambrosia patterned paper. The little mouse stamp from the Spring Mix Stamp TV Kit was fit my favorite childhood book perfectly and I love that he is holding a special sign for his mother :o) Ahhhhh...
I remember my parents reading Whose Mouse Are You? to me when I was very young. It is a delightful book that teaches the value of family...a real treat for any young child!- Challenge: Choose favorite children's book and make a project inspired by the book. Include photo of book along with why you chose it and how it inspired your project.
