Another House Mouse Challenge Entry!

I decided to do another House Mouse card since I needed a birthday card! I used Poppin Good Birthday and this card will be an Anything Goes entry on House-Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge (HMFMC190).

I wanted to try a background technique using Distress Inks that I had seen on UTube. I love how it turned out. I colored the image with Copic Markers and added a little Glossy Accents to the eyes, nose, and candle flames, then attached the image to the Distress Ink background with mounting squares. I tied coordinating floss onto the background piece. I stamped the sentiment from a set of Fiskars sentiment stamps. I stamped the white cardbase with the same Distress Inks using Stampin Up Gorgeous Grunge.  Last I mounted the distress ink background piece onto the cardstock base with mounting squares and added some sequin stars as a finishing touch.

House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge

House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge (HMFMC190)I love my House Mouse stamps so this challenge interested me a LOT! The challenge is to CASE this card (isn't it cute!).

To CASE a card is to Copy and Share Exactly. I followed the basic concept of using pieces of a House Mouse  image along with a sentiment. Only I took one single image and divided it into 4 sections. I used the stamp 'Butterfliers' along with the sentiment offered as a freebie by Snoopy's Homemade Fun.

I ran the turquoise cardstock through my Big Kick using Stripes embossing folder. I used my Copic markers to color the image before I cut it into 4 pieces and backed each one with brown cardstock. I mounted the sentiment in the center with mounting tape, added some Wink of Stella highlights to the butterflies, and  finished off the card with a few sequins. It was a fun card to make!
