Joanna Sheet - House Mouse

This double fold/tri-panel card was created from a piece of card 4 inches by 12 inchies, that was scored to fold in on itself and finished up 4 inchies by 4 inchies.

This is the front of the card. It is a Joanna Sheen stamp - from a set called Windows that she did a couple of years ago. I am pleased with the way I have been able to extend the original image so that it fills the whole of the panel. The chap on the front covers up a cat that is part of the original image and is out of scale to the mouse


Open up the front and inside you see the mice sitting round the fire drinking tea!

The image was extended by myself, sideways and downwards to fill the panel.

Open this panel and you get to the message panel.

The background paper on the left and right panels was created by scanning the chap from the front cover into a graphics programme and using the create background option.

Magazine Inspired Card

I found this project card in an old edition of Craft Stamper magazine (from March 2006) - I have recently acquired some old editions of the magazine. I have also recently bought the Butterfly stamp produced by Hampton Art that was featured in the articly.

So I decided to have a play and here is my take on this card using this stamp.


I have also done a red variation

Dimension Fourth - February Challenge ATCs



The images and words have all been embossed in Chocolate Brownie Embossing Powder.

Twinchies


Having had my blue Twinchie published in March's Craft Stamper. I was inspired to do a full colour version, when I bought another Lighthouse stamp.


Twinchies are pieces of art that measure 2 inchies by 2 inchies.

Inchies


Having got out my Hobby Art stamp box - I was all ready to go, to create some background scenes to co-ordinate with some novelty buttons. These mini works of art are 1 inch by 1 inch.

Hobby Art - Scene It Stamps 3 - Lighthouse


Having seen a clip of Jenny's new DVD on her blog, I was inspired to have a play myself with the large lighthouse stamp. This card was created for a sketch challenge. I have left off the houses from the lighthouse stamp.

That Darn Cat!

I do like these cat images from Dimension Fourth. I have several different ones in my craft stash.

The flowers and the frame are both from Marianne Creatables.


These ATCs were made for an alphabet swap - letters U and V.

The background image for the Verse ATC was created using 4 Scene it stamps from Hobby Art.
