A Special ART POSTCARD for a friend

Good Tuesday morning!

Yesterday, I shared my little mice I made- the newer ones.

Today, I took one of my mice and tubed it, and added it to my new little mini, one day kit, offered for free at my website.  Items are in a zip file, and free for you to snag and use in your own creations.   All of the items in the card are in the kit.

I used these graphics to create an ART POSTCARD to send to a sweet friend.  Along with the card, she will get her very own mouse.  She is getting the one that is actually in the picture.  It will go out today, after I get it printed on photo paper.  I put everything in a bubble envelope to protect the postcard and mouse.

She loves getting these little items.

And here is a free png for you to snag today.  If you go over to my website, you can pick up all the graphics.

Enjoy!

Alll my Mice for Valentine's Day

Good afternoon,

Today, I'm posting the pictures of the little crocheted Valentine's Day mice I made.

The top picture shows the difference in size.  The little hot pink mouse is like the ones I posted yesterday, but this time I took a picture with it's bow on.

The hot pink mouse was made with a single strand of yarn.  The bigger white mouse was made with 2 strands of yarn, which made it thicker.

Each mouse has stuffing in it to make it like a little stuffed head.

I made the pompom noses.  You can't make out the white nose on the white mouse as easily.  On the bigger mice, I tied the noses on through the front of the face before sewing both sides together.  The ears of the bigger mice are also stuffed.

This is the four different mice together.  The white mouse, the cream colored mouse, the bigger hot pink mouse has button eyes for eyes that were sewn on.  And finally, one of the 16 mice with the bow that I gave out to co-workers and friends.

I really like how they turned out.  It took 2 days to make the 16 mice, 8 done each evening for a couple of hours.

It's been a wonderful holiday.  The sun is shining, and it's a little warmer out.  The snow has melted!  Yeah!

Enjoy the rest of your day.

February Calendar, Valentine's Day mice, and FREE small flower pngs

Good afternoon!

Today, I have a basic February calendar for you.  Of course, February is almost over, but I'll try to get the March calendar up earlier.

February has been a very strange month this year.  A lot of days have been in the 40's, and lots of sunshine.  We have had snow, usually on the weekends. But there has been a day or two where it snowed on a week day.

On Friday, the 15th, it started in the morning.  I left early from work by about 1 hour and 45 minutes.  I was planning on going to my daughters, but after she and her daughter had flu last week; her husband was now down with it!  My husband had a vacation day, so I headed home.

It really snowed pretty good, and we had more on Saturday, and throughout the night, because there was morning snow in our street this morning!  Funny ... it's supposed to be back up into the 40's tomorrow!  Amazing; but I love it!

Tomorrow is Washington's birthday; also called President's Day.  I am off, and that is very nice.

The last time I posted, I wanted to show you a picture of my Valentine's Day presents to co-workers.  Unfortunately, my phone was NOT sending my pictures to my email box.  My husband got it configured for me, so now ... I'm up and running again.

I put 8 of these little mice in a black bowl.  They don't have their bows on them yet.  I made a total of 16 mice.  Three of them have magnets on the back of them to put on the fridge.

I wanted to make one that my granddaughter could play with.  Being almost 3, she is still a little young to have items with glued-on features.

I made 3 bigger mice.  One is hot pink, like the ones above, with a cream colored nose.  This time, I made the pompom and tied it through the front of the face.  I hope to have those pictures tomorrow.

Her eyes are heart-shaped red buttons, with a little flower sticker attached.  The bow on hers is sewn on it's head between it's ears.  I think this will work.

I also made a cream colored mouse, and a totally white mouse.  I will also have pictures of those tomorrow.

Everyone at work loved their little mice.  I also gave them a small box of candy hearts with sayings.  It's traditional for Valentine's Day, and something sweet is always wonderful.

I hope you all had a wonderful Valentine's Day.  My sweet husband bought me a small orchid plant with white flowers tipped in red.  I still have the orchid plant from last year, and it has little buds on it now.

 He bought me some chocolates in a velvet heart-shaped box.  He knows how I love keeping them to store my scrapping items in.  It is beautiful.

The card he bought me is the absolute sweetest he's ever picked up.  I was totally "blown away"!

And here is a little something in a png graphic for you today.  These are 8 small flowers, and can be used freely in your scrapbooking or card making.

I have several kits up now on my website, so hurry on over and check them out.  There is a zip file for downloading the items.  Items are free, and can be found in psp, png, and jpg format.

Till tomorrow; have a great day.  It's almost 4 pm now, so it's almost over.

Take care ... and enjoy!
