Good Morning all, I missed you all yesterday as I was at the dental hospital. It was my first visit to the new hospital and of course they have given it a new postcode also (I really must get a modern satnav). Anyway I got there and more by luck than judgment ended up in the correct lane for the right turn across the dual carriageway. Phew. I slept when I returned home so that was my day gone. I have now been playing for some time on todays fun card of mice and a bit of washi. I put a bit of tissue paper under part of the small strip of washi so it looks like a bit of material for the mice to sew. Admission time - the extra mouse at the bottom right is a cover up as I had an embellishment there that didn't work out (tried to fiddle and it broke).
The rest of my card is made up from 3 separate stamps, I do love masking and and over stamping when it works , which is quite a task with wooden stamps but very satisfying. Anyway enough waffle, I hope you enjoy and thank you for your lovely comments on my layering card and I will play catch up today.

Hi Flora, what a clever lady, stamping and masking, how I envy you being able to accomplish this. I think I am too heavy handed when trying to stamp but it's on my list of things to achieve when the winter nights come in.
ReplyDeleteI just love your mice so happy and full of fun.
