Greetings! I know many people are thinking ahead to Autumn and the holiday season, but I’m not quite there yet. It’s still technically summertime, so I thought this was a good time to share this House Mouse card I created for Stampendous. I am also entering this card into the House Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge, and their “Anything Goes” theme. My full instructions are below.
