Spotty blue, yellow and white House Mouse card


After making the other blue, yellow and white card I had the rest of the 'trim the tree' stamped image left over, so I thought I'd make use of that on another card.

What I used:
  • House Mouse "Trim the tree" stamp
  • Yellow spotty paper and "Just for you" stamp free from magazines
  • Blue and yellow card, ribbon and buttons from my stash
  • WHSmith set of 24 watercolour pencils
  • Square die, polka dot embossing folder and Big Shot die cutting machine
  • StazOn Jet Black ink pad
  • Plus scissors, double-sided tape, tacky PVA glue, foam sticky dimensionals, glue dots, A6 card blank and envelope

This time I went with a more fun card instead of the traditional look I went for before. I had the image already stamped on white card so I coloured it with watercolour pencils then die cut it with a square die and mounted it on blue card.

I ran pieces of blue and yellow card through my Big Shot in the spotty embossing folder that came with the machine and layered them off-set on the card, with a piece of yellow and white spotty paper underneath. The picture went on top mounted on foam pads, and I did the sentiment in the same way.

For embellishments I had those cute little buttons in my stash so I decided to use those on the corners of the embossed card and on the sentiment, stuck down with PVA glue, then added a spotty ribbon with a glue dot.
