Mudpie Munch
House Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge #29 - Sketch
This weeks challenge is a wonderful sketch. Go forth and stamp NOW! LOL!! As always...just make sure you use at least 1 HM or Friends image. For all the challenge details and to see creations by the Design Team - click HERE. There's a prize this week! WOOHOO!!
This HM stamp is called Mudpie Munch. You can always tell which mouse is Mudpie by the little nick in his ear. He's brown and loves to eat & sleep. Mudpie is on several of the DT creations this week -- can you find him? I have to laugh...cause he is munching or sleeping in most of the pics! ha ha ha
Don't forget...you can click the pics to see them up close & personal :)
I just love the colors on this card! Coloring is done with Prismacolor Pencils & Gamsol. I did lots of sanding...cause I love that look...especially with HM images. Some paper piercing and glitter is always a good thing...so I got that in there too. That lavender glitter is a perfect match with the paper. All the flowers got a little sprinkled on them.
I made a fun die-cut flower for the round layer of the layout. It's actually 2 pieces -- 1 cut out of CS - the other from acetate. I also embossed the acetate piece with my Swiss Dots embossing folder. WAY COOL! THEN...I added glitter to each of the raised dots :)
Sometimes ya just gotta go that extra mile for a creation ;) It was well worth the little extra time.
The only thing I didn't do was add a sentiment. I got so excited to take a pic...I completely forgot! I'm not sure I'll even add one now cause it's easy enough to do later. I planned on putting it in the upper right corner of the main image.
Hope ya have time to do the challenge with us. Happy Stamping!
