House Mouse Band Of Mice

Hi all :-) It's time for a new theme over on the  House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge,

Anything Goes

Celebrate!

I used this brand spanking new Stampendous, House Mouse 'Band Of Mice Cling Stamp' 

My brother plays the guitar so I thought this mousie image would be perfect for his birthday! I coloured with Copic Markers, added a few musical notes and kept the design very simple with a beige coloured manuscript paper background.

Stampendous, House Mouse Masked Mice

Hi all, I just got this gorgeous House Mouse 'Masked Mice' Clear Stamp Set by Stampendous and it is just gorgeous don't you think!!  I couldn't decide which mousie image to ink up first so went with all three ;-) 

For this first one I used the fabulous sketch on the Inspire Create Challenge 

I coloured with Copic Markers and kept the designs very simple. I think this happy mouse is glad to be out of lockdown!!! ;-)

cute or what!!!

To add a little bit of interest I stamped and scanned the sentiments, printed them using a laser printer and then foiled them. It is a bit of a faff, but you only have to do it once and then you can print wenever you like. I love to add foiled sentiments, makes them look a bit more special don't you think ;-) 

Thanks for looking!

I used a gorgeous Penny Black Gentle Thoughts Clear Stamp Set and made a sunset scene ;-) 

Nothing nicer than sitting on a beach with your best friend, a glass of chilled wine, a bag of crisps, and watching the sunset is there ;-) 

I masked the image using Inkadinkado Masking Paper (best ever, not too sticky like some brands) and then blended Spiced Marmalade, Salty Ocen and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Inks over the background. I coloured the image with Copic Markers and added some sandy coloured glitter and star dust stickles to the sand and sea. The sentiment is from a Simon's Exclusive Hello Darling Clear Stamp Set, I thought it was quite fitting for sending the sunshine 'down under' ;-)
