Fence Falling

Welcome to the Stampendous Design Team weekly challenge. This week our theme is "Mousey Mischief!". You'll see lots of great creations with our wonder House-Mouse Designs stamps all week long! These little mice are sure to make you smile.

My mischievous little mice are called "Fence Falling", and are featured in the July 2015 Stampendous Catalog.  If you haven't seen the new catalog yet, you can view it online at the Stampendous website, click here.  Don't they just look like they are having a ball playing this game! I colored them with Chameleon markers, then mounted them on a fall background that I created using the Creative Palette and acrylic paints.
