I have enjoyed doing Julee’s Mojo Monday sketches. I find her sketches so easy to do. I have tried…

Monday’s design for you

A friend needed a card for his brother’s 60th birthday.  I had another House Mouse image that I used on this card.  I’m not sure you can tell but the outside says “No way”.  The inside said “You don’t look a day over 50!”  This was a fun card to make.
