Hide and Seek in the garden

Hello crafters.  Hope all is well.

I've often wondered what the critters in our gardens get up to. Most are probably busy now fattening up, stashing and storing for the coming winter months, but who knows, they may have time for a little fun like these mice!

I sometimes know what the cat's been up to - the evidence is usually fluttering about the house ( it was a sparrow last week and during the summer it's moths and dragonflies!).


Items used:

Stamp - Di's Digis coloured with  Promarkers
Paper First  Edition Boho Chic
Dies: TL, Lisa Horton stitched flowers
Sentiment stamp - Dovecraft
