House Mouse Postcard Mice

Hi all :-) I hope you're all having a fabulous weekend! It's REALLY scorching here so I have been having a little play in my craft room and am joining in with the  House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge, a little bit late in the week but better late than never eh ;-) 

This time its the lovely Karin who is hosting and the theme is 

Anything Goes 
+ the option of
Blue/Green/White
Orange/Yellow/White
Pink/Purple/White
Black/Mint/White

 I made a Post It Note Holder using a House Mouse Postcard Mouse Cling Stamp


These are so easy to make and I have made several over the past few months to give to family and friends, everyone loves them! they are so handy to have! :-) 

I cut 2 pieces of mountboard to measure 51/2 X 41/2 inches  and covered with paper. For the inside I cut a piece of cardstock 4 inches x 21/2 and scored at 1/2 inch intervals 4 times to create the pen holder. 

Thanks for looking!!

I used a House Mouse Dragonfly Cling Stamp and made a card that I thought would be especially good for students going through exam times, but of course, it could be used for lots of other life traumas ;-) 


I coloured with Copic Markers ( there is currently a 25% discount if you would like to stock up ;-)) and used some gorgeous Pink &Main Galaxy Foil Paper a silver lined cloud and a few Studio Katia March Crystals 

The sentiment is from a Mama Elephant Up and Away Stamp Set, sorry, I forgot to list it below 

I finished the inside to match the front but left it without a sentiment so I could use it for any occasion.

It is Jess's last week with us in the Designer Spotlight and we would like to say a huge thank you for all of your creations over the past month. It has been a real pleasure to have you along with us :-)

I am just back from a fabulous visit to Simon HQ and picked up a few bits and bobs while I was there and have used a few new things on my tag today ;-)

I made a tag using a new Small Etcetera Tag, a perfect size I think ;-)


I started by painting it with White Gesso and I then used Collage Medium and crumpled Collage Paper over the top. 

I then used Roses, Mini Stencils Set 5 and  Falling Stars Layering Stencils and Distress Oxide Inks to create the background and then used a Baseboard Doll and a new Trinket Frames Bigz Die for the focus. I splattered with Dylusions Inks in Red, Blue and Black. 




Thanks for looking :-)
