House Mouse Holidays

Pin It

I'm back with a house mouse card this time. They are so adorable, I couldn't resist coloring it. I used the spectrum noir color pencils. It is more vibrant in real life and I am disappointed that  my camera hasn't picked up its beautiful colors. The designer paper is SU from a few years back. The image was printed onto neenah cs. I decided to use a die cut to give the card more interest. I then used a red pen and added dots onto the scallop edging. The ribbon is also SU but it had to have a knot other wise it was just too bulky for the card. I cut the button with the buntings and buttons die in the star shape for the top of the tree. I distressed the star with cherry cobbler SU ink. The sentiment is from the Just Rite stamp set Noel Christmas Ornaments. It is a beautiful set. I used the SU modern label punch and the word punch to use with the sentiment. It is just glued on. I took a liner and outlined the reindeer eye. I added the black and the white twinkle so he looked more awake. I couldn't find my red or green twine so I used blue to make the bows for the reindeer neck and the mouse in the basket. I used a half inch corner punch on the designer series paper.  I hope you enjoyed seeing my card, and feel like leaving me a comment.

I will enter this card into these challenges.

Hi My lovely followers,

It has been a while since I posted but I was off with a broken wrist and it took a bit longer to heal than it should have. Then I just seemed to have lost my mojo along the way.  I was cleaning and purging in my craft room and it just made me want to get back into the creating mode. I created this card this morning and decided I would post it. The stamp is Sarah Kay and it is such a cute stamp. I just wanted to do a quick card for a birthday girl. I coloured the image with spectrum noir coloured pencils and I really enjoyed sitting down and relaxing with this image.
The card base is neenah cs, The designer paper I am not sure as it was a scrap I used. The blue is SU bashful blue. I used Martha Stuart vine trellis  border punch. The ribbon is also from my stash. The sentiment is from the Pink Stamper set country living. It has some cute saying in it.
