So excited this is my first Guest Design Spot for House Mouse and I
have thoroughly enjoyed using this new stamp set called
'Thanks a Bunch' which was my prize for coming second
in a House Mouse Challenge last month.

The challenge today is a photo inspiration one, gorgeous colour combination don't you think?
I think this style of card is called a 'Joy' fold, which basically is a small card
inside a bigger one!
