New Release - Mice Party - Mouse with Balloon - Sweet Wishes - with Lili of the Valley LOTV

Hello everyone wishing you all a lovely Tuesday I hope that you are having a great week. Its the end of March already and the garden it starting to look wonderful, brightly coloured flowers everywhere and the orange trees are in blossom so the smell is amazing.  We even have a fabulous display of white and blue wisteria this year - must have been all the rain earlier in the year.

It's a beautiful sunny day here today and the temperature is slowly going up - still chilly in the evenings but I'm not complaining.

I'm back today with another cute card using one of the brand new Party Mice from the recent March release by Lili of the Valley (LOTV). available now from the Etsy shop. There are 12 brand new little mice, all ready to celebrate.

My fun birthday DL  card today features the Mouse with Balloon, its looks like it might lift him away up into the clouds if he's not careful.

I created 2 simple paper masks and then stencilled the clouds into the background using distress ink.

I added a sweet LOTV sentiment from the Sweet Wishes collection to the panel below the mouse before printing out

Just some simple colouring with my promarkers for these sweet little images  with finishing touches added of white gel pen highlights, blue sparkle to the balloon string, sparkle pen to the balloon, glossy accents to the stars  and clear sparkly sequins around the design. 

I hope that you like my card today and you'll enjoy the next cards I share from Lili of the Valley (LOTV)

Hasta luego 👋 

Enjoy the rest of your day !

Snowflake Wonder with Pink Gem Designs

Hello everyone - wishing you a wonderful Saturday. Brr its getting colder here every day but still no sign of any rain - there has been a dusting of snow on the surrounding mountains but its still very sunny during the day.

I'm here today to share another Christmas card that I've made using a gorgeous digital stamp set Snowflake Wonder by Pink Gem Designs. 

For my card today I have used the black and white digital but the set includes a gorgeous pre-coloured version too if you prefer not to colour or just need to make quick cards. 

For todays A6 sized card I started by resizing the cute mice on my computer before printing them out and colouring with my Promarkers.

I then decided to use a snowflake background from Lili of the Valley - I'm still on a mission to use up more of my paper stash mountain whenever I can!

I used distress inks around the edge of the paper panel - this helps to draw the eye into the centre of the design and then added some tiny little gems to the centres of each snowflake.

I used dies to cut two snow banks for the bottom of my card and then adhered the cute mice to the card using low profile foam tape.

The sentiment is a washi sentiment from Lisa Horton Crafts.

Just a little sparkle added to the snowflake on the mouse girls hat and pompom and a really simple but I think very cute little card and so easy to make.

I really hope that you have enjoyed my card today and will drop by again to see my next project.

Hasta luego 👋 

Enjoy the rest of your day !
