We are hopping! Hop along and have fun!

Hello Everyone!  It's time to hop.  I hope you are enjoying the hop so far.  Leave a comment on this post for a chance to win a $25.00 gift certificate to buy some Peachy cuteness for yourself, and be sure and leave a comment at each stop along the way for more chances.  Here are some fabulous prizes you might win!
Prize ONE:
A Peachy Keen Stamps Gift Certificate for $50.00!!

Prize TWO:
A set of the Spellbinders Fancy Tags Two Dies With 2 packages of
matching nestabling!

Prize THREE:
The winner's choice of one EK Success Punch on our site!

Here is a list of the stops along the way, in case you get lost.


So here is my project.  I fell in love with this adorable mouse when Kathy made Angelica's birthday card found here.  I am so happy she made this into a stamp set and thrilled that I get to showcase this cutie in the hop.  This birthday mouse is the star of the Karaoke stage, and is having so much fun kicking up his heals, singing and dancing.


One of these days I will do a video tutorial on how to make these stages.  I have made them several times and in different sizes.  I also have a very crude tutorial here, if you would like to see it.  You have to scroll to the bottom of the post for the start of the tutorial.  My blogging skills have improved a little bit since then.  Blogger has made improvements as well.

The records were made by punching a large black circle and a smaller red circle, gluing them together and punching a hole in the center.  I made the "disco" ball by punching 2 circles from some scrap silver cardstock from some packaging material..  I glued them together and used a stylus to create the look of mirror tiles.  The mouse was colored with copics.  I used the black and white checked paper because I thought it would make a great dance floor.  This stage can be folded and the finished size folded is 6x6.    I hope you enjoyed my project.  Now hop along and enjoy the rest of the hop.  Good luck!

Your next stop is the ever so talented Viv - http://craftinghaven.blogspot.com/.  I can't wait to see it as well, because her sneak peek looked awesome.  Have fun!
