This week's Freshly Made Sketch is a little different and gave me pause for thought. I was really bothered by all the blank space until I came up with an idea for a housewarming card I was planning to make.
The half arch reminded me of a baseboard mouse hole for some reason and since I'd just purchased the Pet Love stamp set that has the cutest little mouse die in it, I was inspired to put together a monochromatic happy new home card using the mouse house concept I hope you like it.

- Everyday Arches dies #164629 2 smallest dies
