House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge is every 2 weeks, we use House Mouse images and the theme is always AG or follow the theme the hostess provides. 

  

 The theme for the next 2 weeks is AG OR Use any Card Fold. 

For this card fold, I used a kit from The Paper Cut- a family owned business in Wisconsin for the precut and folded card. 

The image is Spellbinders: Hold On!  RSC-018

Colored using Copics plus water coloring using Distress inks, and Copic markers.

The DP is Paper Studio from a kit in my stash : )  

The white splatter is Calligraphy Ink. 

May I add- I love the new House Mouse sets include matching sentiments. 

 

And, here is an AG card:  

This card uses Spellbinders image:  Water Fun RSC 030

Colored using Copics and a stencil using Distress ink. 

Corner Rounded and Gingham DP from SU really old!  

The sentiment is also included with the set.

Alpha C and D cards

I am trying to keep up with the Alpha challenge on Splitcoaststampers, and here are my C and D cards.

Our C prompt was to use a clock.  I pulled out this neglected set from Artistic Outpost and stamped up the tin man- I love the sentiment.  Stamped and colored using Copic markers.  

The prompt for D is to use a doily.  So I used a Cheery Lynn die cut and used a digital image I have in a pile to color- it was printed and fussy cut (too even for fussy cutting, probably done on the Scan n Cut).  I am not sure who makes this image, if you know please let me know so I can give credit.  

 I have a few coffee loving friends I could sent this too....including my kids and DIL!!!

Oh- the sentiment was perfect- and is from SImon Says Stamps. 

I hope you had a great start to the weekend- it's not over with yet!

Thanks for stopping by!

The image is a new Spellbinders House Mouse image and sentiment. (There are three sentiments included in this set). The set is called Tree-mendous Christmas RSC-059 

The die set is also by Spellbinders.

I colored using Copic Markers. The background is water colored.  The base is painted with Iridescent Medium.

Happy 98th Birthday

Over at Splitcoast, we have a challenge , Teapot Tuesday, to make a card for people in need, or sometimes, for those who are celebrating.  

 We are making Birthday cards for 'Aunt Betty' who is celebrating her 98th Birthday!  She was just able to get back to country living for this big birthday, so we made a 'country' themed card. 

 

This image is owned by my friend Sharon, who I visited last year in February.

The stamp is made by Stamp A Mania. I used Distress inks and made the sky, then took Copics and colored in the barn, and the foreground- which is mostly Distress ink blending as well. The sentiment is a digital image. 

 I love this calm scene- with a beautiful sky in the view.  I hope Aunt Betty loves the serenity of the scene.

Alpha A=Accessories

 I am in a challenge group at Splitcoaststampers.com called the Alpha challenge.  We are in season 23, and the first prompt is Accessories.  Think Antiques. 

 

   I have a good friend that dances as does her husband.  I thought this set was perfect for them and bought it to make her a Birthday card. 

 The stamp set is called Sock Hop by Catherine Pooler.  

I used distress inks on the background, added a musical notes stencil then added the die cuts over that.  The sentiment is a digital image.
