House Mouse Reindeer Mice Cards





The House Mouse Reindeer image was stamped with Picket Fence Hybrid black ink and my MISTI and made several images. I colored with copic markers: E00,E21,E33,E53,E41,B0000,B91;and Prisma Colored pencils:908,909,922,924,946,1084. I then cut the images down and made a Double Z fold card using Karen Aicken's video. I used Bazzill cardstocks in Red Card Shop, and Carta Bella 6x6 pad of "Christmas Wonderland" (beautiful vintage style from 2015) papers mixing and matching. Using my We R Memories small scoreboard and Fiskars 12" trimmer to cut and score the lines of every paper, it came together nicely. The "Merry Christmas" is a Creek Bank Creations die and the others are cut from a pattern paper. The snowflake is a sticker.

The "Merry Christmas" is a Sizzix die that I used with all of my left over cardstock from the cards. I am able to do most of this while recouping from my foot surgery in a reclined position. Amazing how clever we get!! I hope you enjoy my early Christmas card and now I'm 3 cards more in my Christmas Card stash!!

House Mouse Card

 


                                 

Well, back again with our all time favorite House Mouse cards, and using this larger image, I colored it with Copics: House Mouse: E00,E21,E33,E43,E53,R20 OR C1,C3,C7. Red Hat: R24,R27. Green Hats: G46,G43. Cone: Y21,Y23,Y26. Chocolate Icing: E21,E25,R27. Flames: YR21,YR15.

The card is pieces from a Garage Sale Pumpkin kit leftovers I bought as is, and so I used the banners as my bg as my base. I circle cut the image and circle frame. I then added a glitzy package embellishment from an old Petaloo package I still have in my stash! Also, the "Happy Birthday" was cut apart and remade to match up with the circle, and is from Little B. The glitter gold circle enamel dots are from American Craft. All to match up with the festive feel of the card.

Karen Burniston's Label Charm Pop-up Anniversary Card




 Hello, today I am working with the Karen Burniston die for Label Charm Pop-up Die which can be seen in this video.
    I made this card for my 43rd Anniversary Card for my husband and put in an personal note in the inside after the photos were shot of the card. As some of you know, I am recovering from my latest (3rd) foot surgery at home with my supplies strewn out beside me on all surfaces, so it's a mess. I thought that this came out great!! All were die cut and assembled so much easier than you would expect because of how talented Karen is in engineering these fabulous dies! I have some of her older ones and have loved them! I want to give kudos to my sons who have to feed and care for me as well as take and retake pics for me since I am not moving from my spot in a recliner sectional! They are so patient and kind for sure! Enjoy!
Details: All the cardstocks are shimmer so that they shine and added some bling as well. The dies cut "like butter" and were a dream to use!!
