OK, I know winter has really just arrived but for all of you who are already shivering under a thick blanket of snow, I want to bring you a breath of hope that spring will show itself. :-D
This sweet image is from House Mouse, stamped on a scrap of white CS and colored with polychromos pencils. I based the design on this sketch from The Outlawz.
This sweet image is from House Mouse, stamped on a scrap of white CS and colored with polychromos pencils. I based the design on this sketch from The Outlawz.
The scalloped die is from Sizzix and the stitched circle die (also a scrap) is by Die-namics. I layered those cuts on top of each other and mounted them onto a rectangle of green CS. All of that went onto a pre-made, pale lilac, card base. I used a corner punch by Fiskars to cut the purple corners (scraps) and then tied double-bowtie bows from gingham ribbon.
Finally, I punched the last bit of scrap left over from making the corner bits and made the two tiny butterflies which are attached to the image.
