Getting Scrappy w/Cottage Cutz

Well I'm super excited to share with you this DARLING Cottage Cutz 
♥Most of the time I cut all my pieces out with white card stock and color them with copic markers, im not sure why, but it ends up being that way.....hehehehehehe so for my sweet little mouse she is cut out with cryogen white card stock, and colored with copics. Next her eyes are black pearls, i love using the pearls for eyes. The sunflower is popped with foam squares and so is the butterfly, ooo and i also used the pearls on it too♥


♥♥I also use the most darling paper from My Little Shoebox, and the clouds are from there as well, just love this design paper, its sooo sweet!!!♥♥

♥♥♥For the clouds i just wrote the "thinking of you" on each cloud and then did a little bit of color along the bottom of the clouds and top of some. I used Really Reasonable Ribbon and tied it into knots and then hot glued the clouds to the ribbon, gives for a different look i think♥♥♥
♥♥♥Supplies Used♥♥♥
Mouse with Sunflower/cottage cutz
My Little Shoebox /Design paper and clouds
Satin Ribbon and Lace/Really Reasonable Ribbon
Pearls/Really Reasonable Ribbon
Button brad/Feather
Sewing


Of course I had to use the beautiful lace (RRR) and added a feather too. I did hot glue the bow,button,feather,banner, and cottage cutz with foam squares to my card.

Update on my ankle-
Well most of you know ive been dealing with trying to get the open wound from where my bone had broke through on the one side of my ankle, well its not going to close up since the skin doesnt want to grow over the screw that is showing through my wound, yes its gross, of course now im use to it. Ive been in bed and up until last wednesday was told i can now have it down for longer periods of time. Anyways i was also sent to see a specialist who now wants to remove the hardware so this wound  can close up and we wont have to worry about infection . This has been a 3 month ordeal and im still not walking , nor have we even thought about therapy, i have a LONG Road ahead and im hoping this new year will bring me back to walking soon.....hehehehehe 

Ok i hope you all have a wonderful day and thank you again for stopping by and all your wonderful SWEET comments!!
Hugs to all,
Cheryl
