Little Hello Mouse

 

My mouse is from the 2020 Special Someone Stamp Set, that you can order, starting January 3rd. The stamp set is in my Product List below, which you can click on to see all the cuteness that it includes. 

You’ll notice that there are solid stamps, and detailed stamps, because this is a “two-step” stamp set. First, I stamped the solid portion of the mouse in Sahara Sand Ink, followed by the detailed mouse in Early Espresso Ink, on Whisper White Cardstock.

TIP: With the help of the Stamparatus, matching was simplified; just make sure the tail is lined up.

 

Then, I used two Ornate Frames Dies for cutting the mouse, and the Shaded Spruce frame, surrounding the mouse. I love how these fit together! Additionally, I matched the fancy frame to the Shaded Spruce card base.

For the background, I randomly stamped a flower, also from the Special Someone Stamp Set, in Cherry Cobbler Ink on Whisper White Cardstock.

 

“A Little Hello” is from the Itty Bitty Greetings Stamp Set, stamped in Early Espresso Ink on Whisper White Cardstock. I used the smallest Stitched So Sweetly Die for cutting, and was happy the sentiment fit so perfectly.

 

Today’s colors were inspired by Global Design Project. 

 

Thank you for stopping by. Happy New Year, and remember the mouse!
