Thinking of you, House-Mouse Masculine Challenge #HMFMC166, and Blog Candy Reminder

Hello Friends!  Welcome back!  I have a new House-Mouse card to share for the HMFMC "Anything Masculine" Challenge - and a Blog Candy reminder...

Here is my Masculine take with a "Thinking of You" design;
 same card - different lighting

CARD RECIPE
This is funny, but I actually thought I was going to save myself some 'coloring' time by using the HMD Decoupage sheets by Joanna Sheen.  Turns out,  it actually took much, much longer since I had to manually cut out the multiple images for this dimensional look.  ha!  This is totally where my new Brother Scan-N-Cut machine would have come in handy -  if only its scanner picked up all these open line images to cut. (Wish it would for the hefty prize!  sigh!)  Hoping Brother finds a way to improve its scanning for this to be a possibility. Would sure save loads of crafty time and open up doors for many more creative possibilities.  KWIM?

Inks:  Studio G blues (for sponging edges) and pink Copic for adding extra color mousey cheeks, ears and nose.
Paper; DCWV Springtime DP, Blue CS, White CS.
Accessories; Spellbinders Grand Circles and Labels Dies, Lg Dots Cuttlebug Embossing Folder, CM Corner rounder, Stencil Tape, Baubles


Hope you can make time to play along on this Masculine theme at HMFMC
 Hope you can play because we have terrific prizes!

  22. I love this image, have the stamp. The bright blue colors of the papers are so pretty with this decoupaged card. Fussy cutting it all out was a lot of work, but look at the results. Layers look fantastic too.
