I had so much fun putting this card together & combining it for several different uses!  It's the last day of the month so it's time to share a creation for the Crafters of Faith group & Barb challenged us to make a card in honor of Dairy Month...something on the farm.  Well; if you have a farm, you'll have mice so my image is PERFECT for that LOL!  I also needed to make a birthday card for my soon to be 20 year old Son & I am very sure he's going to LOVE this since I've never given him a card in the 4th of July colors!!!  If you want to see what the rest of the ladies made, check out their links listed on the left hand side of my blog!
