Celebrate

Wow!! I was thrilled to have my card selected as a winner over at House Mouse Challenge!! Thank you so much to everyone for choosing my little creation. It means a lot to me. To think I wasn’t too sure about this one!! Ha!! Ha!!!

Hello and welcome

I have a fun card using Stamplorations – House Mouse Acorn Cup stamp. I could imagine these little mice surrounded by leaves as the have fun celebrating. I’m not sure if it came off. but it looks fun IRL. I found the 3D leaves caused lots of shadows making the card look a little dark and overwhelming the mice!

I iked up a wood block stamp – leaf and watercoloured/ smooched with Distress inks before fussy cutting. They were then scrunched to make them look like dry leaves.

I used MFT – Pierced Rectangle Frames dies to create the kraft frame for the little scene.

The background was a piece I had previously created with lots of inks and splatters of gold.

“Celebrate’ comes from MFT – Make a Wish stamp set.

The mice were then added with the leaves arranged around them.

Thanks so much for taking the time to visit.  I love to read your comments.

I hope your enjoying some crafty time.

Stay safe and take care

Cheers

Helen

I live in sunny Queensland, Australia with my husband and daughter. Since I was a child, I have always loved to create and have enjoyed all kinds of crafts, sewing and painting. China painting helped develop my understanding of colour and design. Over the last few years card making has taken up a major part of my crafting time as I love to play with new techniques and mediums. Since beginning my blog, entering various challenges has encouraged me to grow my skills and creativity.
