2022 Mini Catalog Host Stamp Set-- Mischievous Mice (used on 3 cards)

 

My color combo for this card includes:

Misty Moonlight, Daffodil Delight, Real Red, and White

I used a Smoky Slate Stampin Blend to color the mouse, and a Misty Moonlight Blend to "color" my white seam binding to make a blue bow.

 

Other StampinUP Products Used:

--Layering Circle Dies

--Sweet Talk Designer Series Paper

--Stripes & Splatters 3D Emboss Folders

--Mischievous Mice Stamp Set (pg. 90 in current Mini Catalog)

 


This was the last "Critter Card" made with my 2 year old grandson Cole.  We used the same designer paper and stamp set as mentioned above.  Hopefully, you can tell who made which card or my 23 year StampinUP career can just be thrown out the window!!  lol


Hope you enjoy these cards today made with the cute little mice.  Call me strange, but I've always thought REAL mice are super cute too!!  I've never been scared of them at all or anything like that.  This comes with being born and raised by corn fields, and growing up-- we definitely had our fair share of the furry friends!!  lol   Thanks for blogging by......LORI

Easy Window Sheet Idea Featuring the Art Gallery Stamp Set & Floral Gallery Dies

 

 For this creation, I wanted a thinner & clear overlay, so I just recycled a plastic (window) sheet that came in a photopolymer stamp set.  The beautiful paper used today is called Expressions In Ink Designer Paper.  (I utilized 2 different patterns).

As I mentioned, I used the Art Gallery set & Floral Gallery dies shown on pgs. 13 & 163 in the Annual Catalog.  I finished this card off with 4 tiny butterfly embellishments-- Brushed Brass Butterflies from the current Mini Catalog.

 

 

Here you can see the overlay when it's lifted up.  The card base is white and just opens like a normal card.  If you need further explanation, please ask!

 

 If you have any questions and or comments, please let me know!!  If you want to check out any of the products used on these 2 cards, I can help you!!  If you do not already have a StampinUP demonstrator that you use, I would love to be that person!!  Thanks for visiting-- Lori
