House Mouse 'Mice Wishes'

I am here with a card to remind you to not forget to join in with the House Mouse and Friends Challenge and this time it's the lovely Lori's turn to choose the theme 


RAIN OR SHINE 
As I went with a rain theme last week I thought I would do 'shine' this time ;-)

I used a super cute Mice Wishes Clear Stamp Set and made yet another shaker ;-)


As you can see my  Fuse Tool is getting lots of action! I think it's one of the best inventions EVER and if you haven't got one WHY NOT!! Its FAB :-) If you were thinking of getting one I would highly recommend that you get a Silicone Heat Mat with Holster, the tool does get very hot and this helps to prevent accidental burns ;-)

I didn't add a final sentiment as such as I think this could be used for all sorts of occasions, birthday, retirement, someone heading for new horizons,,,

Spring Is In The Air


I was chosen as the Queen of Snark for the last Sisterhood Of Snarky Stampers Challenge and they invited me to be a GD for this challenge! Woo Hoo!! I am really tickled ;-)



'M' is for Mixed Media

I decided to make a Spring Tag using a gorgeous new Spring Flowers Stamp Set which is part of the latest Reason To Smile Release 


I started by inking the die cut tag with Cracked Pistachio and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Inks and then splattered with water. After drying with a heat tool I stamped the grid with Potting Soil. I used a Dot Fade Stencil and some Embossing Paste to add some texture and while the paste was still wet I sprinkled with some new Antique Gold Embossing Powder (also from the Reason To Smile Release) and heated it to melt. It looks gorgeous doesn't it!!


I stamped the flowers onto watercolor Paper and coloured with Dried marigold and Squeezed Lemonade Inks, I used Mowed Lawn and Shabby Shutters for the leaves. 


I love how this turned out and I hope you do to! 

Now it's time for you to get all inky and join in the challenge!
