House Mouse Costume Play

It's time for a new House Mouse and Friends Challenge. This time it is my turn to choose the theme.

Anything Goes 
or you can choose the options of 
Halloween/Fall

of course you must use a House Mouse, Gruffie or Happy Hopper image to join in ;-)

For the front of the card I used a 'thoughtful mousey' image from a Stampendous 'Friend Wishes' Stamp Set and a sentiment from a Stampendous 'Spooky Wishes' Stamp Set 

I masked the image and used a Tim Holtz 'Shatter' Layering Stencil to create a spiders web

I saw a card on a blog while hopping aorund recently, sorry, but I can't remember on who's and she had made a shadow box card inspired by Jennifer McGuire, so I thought I would have a go too ;-) 

For the inside I used a new Costume Play Cling Stamp (thank you Laura and all at Stampendous XX) and a Tim Holtz Moonlit Owl Die 

Hope you all have a Terror-ific Halloween!!

SPOOKY!!! ;-)

Simon Says Stamp Birthday Borders

Hi all :-) I hope you're all having a fabulous weekend!

I am here to share a card I made for one of my best friends son's 30th birthday (hence 29 candles ;-))

This new  STAMPtember®  Birthday Borders Stamp and Die Set is one of my newest faves!! 

haha, did you count them? yes there are 30 ;-)

 I coloured with copic markers and added Star dust Sticked to the flames. The sentiment is from a CAS-ual Fridays Shenanigans Set, love the sentiments in this one ;-)

 I finished the inside and made a matching envelope! I love to do this, makes a card even more special don't you think?! 

Thanks for looking! 

Enjoy your weekend and I hope you manage to find some crafty time :-D

For the background I used some Desert Storm Card Stock and an old, now retired, text stamp inked with Khaki Ink. You could use any background stamp to add some extra interest. 

I then blended Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink over Watercolor Paper and then used a Falling Snoinked with w Stencil and White Embossing Paste to add texture.
