The challenge over at HOUSE MOUSE AND FRIENDS for this week was to use paper piercing on your card. When my husband saw this card and I told him the challenge requirement he laughed and said, "You always do go a bit overboard!" True enough, this is a lot of piercing, but it was fun to do and I don't use this ornare piercing template often enough. Besides, it was perfect for this image with the oval center.
I probably would have added machine stitching to this card but with all of that piercing there no longer was any room or space to stitch.
This is the year of baby girls for my family and friends. I have two newborn baby girls amongst my family and friends so I decided to add pink shoe laces to these sweet vermints.I hope everyone is staying warm during this exceptionally cold, snowy and icy winter across most all of North America. To my friends across "the big pond" what is your weather like this winter? (Summer to my Aussie pals).
Stay warm!
Jennifer, this is so beautiful!! I love that ornare template and it goes so perfectly with your image and other punch! I am glad to see you posting today! I missed you!

Oh my heavens this is so gorgeous Jennifer! I love the punching and colors are so sweet! I am a mouse/rat lover! We have had both as pets! SMILE!
ReplyDeleteJennifer,
ReplyDeleteI just seen your card on Splitcoast and decided to do a little snooping on your blog. What a wonderful discovery. You make such beautiful cards. Anyone one can see the love you put in the cards you make. I love your blog and will visit often. Thank-you so much for putting it out there.
Oh my! This is just precious! And I didn't even notice those pesky little fur-blobs at first. LOVE the paper piercing, which even I can do, sorta. Love the oval shape and it looked at first glance like you had placed it upon delicate lace. Well done and if I got a say, you would be THE House Mouse Design Team (no others need apply).

ReplyDeleteOkay, you're makin' me CRAZY with these rat cards. I have NEVER liked House Mouse stamps because I think they're so cutesy...but you are DEFINITELY challenging me to change my mind lady. This is simply PRECIOUS Jennifer. Hmmm, maybe I ought to consider coming over to the dark side...I think I see some House Mouse stamps in my future...and it will be ALL your fault!! Thanks for the continually delightful inspiration you post for us my friend...in between shovelling the fifty feet of weekly Ottawa snow out of your driveway! ;)

ReplyDeleteG'day Jennifer, Here where I am in North Queensland, it's raining and cloudy. Still humid though. Great to have the rain. I absolutely love your card. It's fabulous and I've just been through your blog and all your work is beautiful.

This card is stunning--no, it's not a card, it's a work of art! I SO HOPE you make the DT--if you don't, they need to be smacked, because you are the BEST HM stamper I know!

ReplyDeleteHere in Belgium it's a little bit cold, not too bad (freezing a bit a night, fresh during daytime). A typical Belgian winter and perfect for all the clothes I found in the winter sales, lol.
