My Favorite Things, Challenge #HMFMC158

Our super talented Teamie Sue Kment, is hosting and has chosen the song...
My Favourite Things!You can read the song's lyrics below to use them for your inspiration
*****

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things

Cream colored ponies and crisp apple streudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things

Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into springs
These are a few of my favorite things

When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad
*****


What a HAPPY SONG to inspire you to break out your House-Mouse Stamps!!! 
This could go so many ways/themes from the lovely lyrics. Hope you can join us. 
 
I had a heck of a time making this card come together, and I'm still not sure!
I took my sentiment off cause I thought it was too big.
The snowflake covers the torn image.....bother!
 
Anyhoo, here it is, cause I got a full day of Annual Christmas Craft Saling to do with the gf's!
 
 
This was my very first HM stamp & I LOVE it!
I've got Whiskers on Kittens, Warm Woolen Mittens, a snowflake.......
Love the charm (Thanks America!)
This is a great song cause there's lots of ways to interpret it!
 
Dig out your HM, Happy Hoppers & Gruffies & play along!
 
Hope you're all well!
Talk to ya later!
Ta ta for now!
