Saturday Sketch meets House Mouse Monday :-)

I made this card following the fabulous sketch on the Sketch Saturday Challenge

I also used a stamp that I bought from Jay Jay, it arrived yesterday and had to use it :-) Cute eh ! I don't know how she could bear to part with this one !!



The theme on the House Mouse Monday Challenge is Paper Tole, I use this technique all the time I just didn't know it had a name :-) It does make the 3D effect much nicer as the card is rounded, makes the mice look plump :-)





I am also entering this card in the C R A F T Challenge
their theme is 'Decoupage'

I used download papers from Summertime Designs Beautiful papers !!

The sentiment is from Simon Says Clear Stamps SENDING SUNSHINE Exclusive Set

Thanks for looking :-) I really appreciate your comments so please leave me one :-)

Lorraine -- this is the best example of this technique I've seen. You've done an amazing job and I love how the little bellies are rounded too.

Those mice do look like they have been munching on something....very cute. Love the papers and the colors you chose. Very nice card.
Lorraine, I have to say you are the energizer bunny....you must stamp around the clock! I don't know how you do it, but I admire you for it. Have a great weekend.
