More House Mouse…………

I saw a sketch on one my friend’s blogs and fell in love with it. The hardest part was picking the papers. Here is the site, she has lots of great sketches to try….I have my eye on a couple more. The name of the blog is deconstructing jen. I sell Avon and each of my customers gets a hand made card with a certificate for 15% off their next order, it’s my way of showing them I appreciate their loyalty.
I had my cute little image from House Mouse coloured in a box on my desk, I like to have some images already coloured to speed up the creating time. Here is my card.

Here is what I used to make my card……

Ink….Versafine Black Onyx

Another Baby Boy Card……..

If you are looking for my Clear it Out challenge card click HERE.
I am trying to get a stash of baby cards it seems there are some new Grandmas in the spring. I love this cute image and I made a frame for it.

I used a 5 inch square card base and layered some blue print paper on it. I put I attached the image on it. I cut the Ballet Blue with my Fleur dis lis square die and cut a circle with the small circle die, I cut a second piece of dsp with another circle and attached them together and popped the whole square with the image showing in the opening.
I am entering this in the House Mouse & Friends Monday challenge #137….Anything Goes with Special Cuts you will find it HERE

Hang on to your Circles…..the challenge isn’t over yet!!!

Because there are five weeks in January the circle challenge is still going on….check it out at Clear it Out Challenge Blog.

I tried a sketch. it didn’t turn out exactly like the picture I printed….but I like the way it looks, the hardest part was figuring out what colours to use. Of course we are to use “stash” so I went ‘dumpster diving” well into my odd pieces of scrap and I found a piece of shiny paper I made into a background using rubbing  alcohol; re-inkers and cotton balls, the other piece was done with re-inkers and shaving cream. Don’t you just love it when things just fall into place?

Things I used on this card……

Image……. Penny Black Acrocat

Card stock…..GP White, Ballet Blue, Regal Rose

Dsp……hand made on shiny paper & from DCWV pack

Sentiment….Rub ons from Stampin’up (my stash)

Rhinestones…..also stash item

Circles made with Spellbinders Large and Small dies.

Thanks for stopping by today and hope to see your creation at Clear it Out Challenge Blog. you can find the challenge HERE.

It’s a Birthday…..the Beginning of a New Year

Maybe I was stretching things a little but every time you have your birthday it’s the beginning of a new year at a new age. BTW not counting mine anymore, lol.

Stamp……………House Mouse “candle lit dinner”

Mid-Challenge week at Clear it Out….Have you Joined?

Digi Darla is the sponsor for the challenge.

The winner will receive 5 images of their choice! 

Our sponsors have always been so generous, please stop by their store and check out the new digis they have. Psssst-just checked out Digi Darla's shop and she still has some of her $4.00 Cd's left!! One Cd has 69 images that's 0.5 cents a digi!!!) 

The challenge is to make a circle card, or use circles and/or round embellishments. The stash item is anything goes but let us know what you used on your card from your stash. My stash item was the pink rhinestones and the card base. I bought a package at Michaels about a year ago and hadn’t even opened it yet, I was surprised I knew where it was as I have a “safe” place that things seem to disappear into. Check out all the details at the Clear it Out Challenge Blog.
