Flower Cart Mouse

Hi all - I'm back with a quick card for the June We Love Stamping challenge where they're doing Nature, as well as Anything Goes. Thought I'd do a sweet mouse with a flower cart. Besides flowers, the image has butterflies so I'm well covered with the nature theme!


Supplies: Paper - Art Impressions Birthday Journal;
Neenah Solar White; scraps; Paper Studio A2 card
Stamps with Dies - Pink & Main Mice Spring (dies)
Dies - Birch Press Design Happy Birthday Vintage Sentiment;
My Favorite Things Blueprints 26 (out of stock 
at MFT but one left HERE at Frantic Stamper)
Stencil - Lawn Fawn Cloudy
Other - Copic Markers, Hero Arts &
Memento inks; sentiment strip (SSS maybe);
white gel pen; foam tape

I'm using an adorable spring stamp set from Pink & Main. Libby from P&M presented a segment at the recent BellaCon I attended & I ordered a few things. This is the first outing for the mouse with flower cart. I stamped, colored with Copics & die cut the image. Added a few white gel details.

Next I cut a stitched rectangle from Neenah and ink the bottom edge green for grass, then stenciled the clouds. Die cut a large stitched rectangle from plaid and added to an A2 card. Matted the smaller rectangle and popped onto the plaid with foam tape. Die cut a small banner. The sentiment and sub-sentiment strip were from my bits box. Assembled and done!

I'll also add my card to Darnell's June NBUS Challenge #75 since my mouse is newly used. I colored the mouse while I was at a Craft Roulette after show party on Zoom Friday night. Gave me something to work on since my CR card was already done!! I finished the card yesterday afternoon before I headed to the western suburbs for a chorus party. That little mouse really makes me smile!

That's it for today. Thanks for stopping by and have a crafty day!
