Hello and Welcome.
Today's card is one that I'm sharing with the Inspired by blog,
This was the Inspiration photo:
Since this is just an inspiration point I decided to add another color, (green) to my card. After all this is a Spring mouse!
My card stock colors: Basic White, Granny Apple Green & Azure Afternoon - SU.
The image was stamped in Memento Tuxedo black ink and colored with pencils blended with Gamsol.
I masked off the mouse image and created clouds by using a homemade stencil since I couldn't find my cloud stencil (my craft room needs serious organization!)
As you can see it's not perfect, I'm still learning stencil techniques.
I colored the border and drew in grass with my pencils. Then I stamped rain using an old SU stamp from Itty Bitty Backgrounds.
The dies are Unity (Rectangle Scallops and Circles). Main image was mounted with foam tape.

so precious, so cute
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute card. I love the colors and the green really added to it. That little mouse is so cute. I think you did great with the stenciling. It's not something I've tried. I don't even do much stamping because I'm not very good at it. And yet I have a ton of stamps..
ReplyDeleteThis is such an adorably sweet little scene, Ida! House Mouse is always a good choice and this one fits the bill, with our weather anyway -- nice job!
ReplyDeleteA cute scene you created inspired by the photo, Ida! I love your little mouse, and the homemade-stencil clouds make a very cool background. My cloud stencil always confuses me, but I think it might just be the particular stencil. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
