Hi crafty friends! Jane here today sharing another card using these adorable mice from the Garden Mice Stamp Set by Newton’s Nook Designs. To create this card, I used a variety of art mediums on Bristol smooth cardstock.
To start, I stamped the image of the mouse under the mushroom using Versafine clair ink in the color acorn. Then, I stamped the image on masking paper and cut it out using scissors. I stamped and masked all the images in a similar manner. Next, I used distress oxide inks in picked raspberry, spun sugar, milled lavender and broken china to blend the background. The background was then splattered with water using a thin paint brush.
After dabbing off the excess water using a dry paper towel, I removed the masks. The images were then colored using zig clean color brush pens and accented using Inktense pencils and a white gel pen. The background grass was filled in by using flicks of my zig pens, Inktense pencils and a white gel pen. Distress oxide ink in twisted citron was also used to fill in the white space at the bottom of the card, but I did leave a small area of white space for the sentiment.
The sentiment was stamped using the Garden Mice Sstamp Set in versamark black ink. After the panel was dry, I cut the card down to 3.75 inches by 5 inches and mounted it on a white A2 card base. And that completes the card!
I hope this card inspires you to pull out different art mediums from your stash and mix them together for a unique and fun look to your projects!
Thanks so much for stopping by today!
