Challenge No. 74 ~ The letter "B"


Happy House Mouse Monday!!

Millan.net

We've got a super fun challenge this week brought to us by the one and only Mr. Curt O'Brien, our HM&F Design Teammate ~ the letter "B". Sooo just what exactly does this mean you may ask ... well, anything that has to do with the letter "B": Blues, browns, bears, bunnies, baby, etc., as long as the "theme" of the card revolves around the letter "B". Sounds like fun, right?? :)

Wait til you see what the Design Team has come up with ~ pretty clever!! Although I think Heather has won the prize for the most B's covered on one card!! (TWELVE - Basic grey, Blue, Bath, Bath tub, Bath towel, Bath mat, Bath tap, Black bear, Brown bear, Bird, Brass, Banner!!) Anyone up for a try at beating her number? We'd love to see!


Please be sure to upload your creation for this week's challenge to your blog or public photo gallery, and then leave a link that goes directly to your project in the Inlinkz form at the bottom of this post by Sunday, August 1st to be eligible for a chance at our fabulous prize this week . . .

There is something there for everyone. I use to participate in this House Mouse challenge before taking on this new venture as I love the house mouse images myself.
