House Mouse #100!

I love House Mouse images, and I have a bunch!  This is the 100th challenge at the House Mouse & Friends Challenge Blog, and they're having a blog hop to celebrate, along with a great theme of Buttons, Bows and Bling!!  This image, called Beading Basics, was the first one I thought about.  I've had it colored for over a week, but just now had time to make the card today.  I followed the sketch at Papertake Weekly

The image was colored with Copics and Prismacolor pencils. Lots of Stickles and Liquid Pearls added to the beads. A few tiny buttons scattered on the table.  The doily was cut with Cheery Lynn Designs die.  Seam binding was died and scrunched by me.  Background DP from K&Co., embossed with Cuttlebug EF. 

Challenges: 
House Mouse - Buttons, Bows and Bling
Papertake Weekly - Sketch.
Simon Says Stamp and Show - Anything goes
Crafts and Me - Ribbon
Truly Scrumptious - Buttons and Bows.

Stamps:  House Mouse "Beading Basics".
Paper:  K&Co.  Julianne paper pack, Neenah Solar White.
Ink:  Colorbox Queues.
Accessories:  Cheery Lynn Designs English Tea Party Doily die, corner rounder, Liquid Pearls, Stickles, buttons, seam binding, CB embossing folder.
