Happy Forever July 2010 Stamp of the Month

Visit ilovepaper.myctmh.com to get yours today!!!


I used the Zippidee Papers and the Happy Forever July Stamp of the Month on my card below (for the words "Happy Now, Happy Forever"). . . .I couldn't help but think of a certain theme park in California when I put this combination together so I HAD to put Mouse head on it.  I prefer the girl mouse over the boy mouse. .  I have 2 daughters so I feel compelled to put bows on things.  So. . . . here's my card.
