Mothers Day Cuppa

-

This card using a wonderful House Mouse stamp
I stamped him twice then coloured him with my promarkers
I cut the cup and mouse so I could mount then and add some dimension to the card
The cup mouse and handle were all embossed with clear embossing power to make them shine
I cut the image using my nestabilities
The sentiment was done in word and printed directly onto the pastel pink card
The strip of blue I dry embossed with my cuttlebug border embossing folder

This card is for the following challenges


Thanks for Looking

I then also started to collect some flexi markers and the promarkers brought out some limited edition promarkers so I decided I needed them!        This meant my storage box was no longer large enough so I started to look at ways to improve it I brought a slightly larger box from E-Bay then set to improving the insides I realised if I made some boxes for the pens I could store more in a row, than using the CD sleeves. So using an A4 piece of paper I scored out a box with two dividers so the pens do not fall over (I did warn you I was OCD)  This is the A4 piece of card with the score lines dotted and the solid lines are...
