House Mouse 'So Big'

Hi all, it's time for a new theme on the House Mouse and Friends Challenge and this time it's the lovely Natascha's turn to choose the theme

Pastels
or you can choose the Anything Goes option

I used a super cute little 'So Big' cling stamp


This card did start life in pastels and then I got sidetracked with the banner!  I coloured the image and then masked before stencilling some 'confetti' onto the background.




We are sponsored by the lovely Heidi and Simon Says Stamp!

aww aren't these little frogs adorable!! I stamped them onto watercolor paper and coloured with distress inks. 
The background doesn't show up that clearly but I masked off the lower portion and used a copic air brush and a BG11 copic marker to create a pond, then used a cloud mask and a B21 marker for the sky. 


So now it's YOUR turn, Happy Crafting
