Spellbinders Spring House Mouse Cards

Hey, card-making friends, welcome back. Today, I’m sharing two Spellbinders Spring House Mouse Cards using new stamps from the Spellbinders line. I just adore these little guys, and they are always so much fun to color. This time, I even masked them off after they were colored and ink-blended the backgrounds.

Four new stamps are in the Creative Day Release, and you can buy them individually or as a bundle.  These sweet little guys will make you smile as you sit and color them.

I colored mine with Copic Markers:

How to create the Spellbinders Spring House Mouse Cards #1

Start by using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink to stamp the image onto Hammermill white cardstock.

Next, color with Copic markers and cut the image out with the Stitched Rectangles Dies.

Then, stamp the image again onto Gina K Masking Magic Paper, trim around the image, and lay the mask over the colored image.  Ink blend the background with Simon Says Stamp Tidepool, Seafoam, and Ocean inks.

Finally, cut a yellow mat with the one-size-larger Stitched Rectangles Dies. Cut the largest of the Nested Postage Labels dies from Waterfall cardstock and attach that to a top-folding A2-sized white card base. Attach the art piece using foam tape to add a bit of dimension to the card. Then, white heat emboss a sentiment onto a scrap of black cardstock and attach it along the bottom.

Spellbinders Spring House Mouse Cards #2

The instructions on card #1 are basically the same as those on card #1, with the exception of the yellow mat.

This image ended up larger than the first, so I used the larger of the stitched rectangles to cut it out and mount it to the Nested Postage Labels die cut.
