It is with a hint of...I dunno...sadness...that I post my last project for House Mouse and Friends as their guest designer. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time with the House Mouse DT!
The new challenge over at House Mouse and Friends is all about that time of year that parents cheer and kids dread....Back To School. So make your way over to House Mouse and Friends and post your take on this academic theme!
My favorite part about starting back up at school every year was getting new school supplies. There are few things that elicit such a positive memory for me. I just loved my brandy new Pink Pearl eraser...and those little triangular erasers that stuck on the end of my taxicab yellow, #2 Ticonderoga pencils. Back in my day...those were the only pencils out there.
I loved the blank canvases that these created, because I knew each year would be different--unique to that year of my life. I'd spend countless hours doodling cartoons and fanciful designs, and I'd write my name in those puffy letters that were so "cool" in the 1970s.
Here is my House Mouse Back-to-School edition. I combined 3 different House Mousies along with some clipart (books and apple). I colored it all up with my Prismacolor Pencils (as per usual).
Oh my, Torrey, looks like a big work load for these mice! What a wonderfully desgned and colored card, Bright colors and fun little scene. It has been wonderful having you create along with us for the past couple of months and your contributions have all been fabulous.

Wonderful card! You've made the different elements look as if they were one stamp image! I know what you mean about New School Materials! I remember the Ticonderoga pencils, and I loved those wonderful triangular eraser "hats", because the pencil erasers were always long gone before I even had to sharpen the pencils.
ReplyDeleteLove your pretty colors! Yes, I always look forward to lining up all my new pencils and drawing on my peechees too! Gotta doodle!
