House Mouse and Friends-Challenge #196 "Holidays"!!

Good Monday morning!!

And how was everyone's weekend??!!

For my Totally Tilda and Friends post from yesterday please go HERE!

For my Simply Magnolia post also from yesterday please go HERE!

I'm here today to tell you about House Mouse and Friends newest challenge...our lovely and super talented hostess is Heather and she has chosen "Holidays" as her theme!!!  As always you have the "Anything Goes" option!! 

Now I have to tell you a story in order for you to understand how my card fits the "Holiday" theme...my Grandson...well actually my twin Granddaughters as well...love to jump on beds!!  Now I'm sure you've heard all the horror stories about kids getting hurt while jumping on beds...so to try to get Quinn to stop jumping on beds my Son and DIL told him that the only beds he was allowed to jump on were hotel beds...lol...now when is the most common time we stay in a hotel...on holidays of course!!!

Well Calla and Mia are taking a trip with their parents and...yes...they will be staying in a hotel...so I made them a little card to pop some money in for their "Holiday"!  I thought that this sweet image fit the bill perfectly!!

Here is what I came up with...

please click on the first image for a closer view/slideshow...

I made a card shaped like a pocket...
DP is Maja Design Vintage Spring Basics 6X6 pad...
crocheted lace trim is from Live and Love Crafts...

inside is the reverse side of the paper...

on the sides are pockets made to slip some money into with the girls' names (computer generated) on them...

this sweet image is "Bunny Hop" HMPR1080...

coloured with my copics...

dusted with Frantage...

decorated on each side with pearl strand and Shabby Seam Binding...
