One of the girls I work with is having a baby so I wanted to make her a card to go along with the cutest Pooh Bear baby outfit. So, Pooh Bear & mice it is. This stamp came from House Mouse ordered specifically for all the baby cards I'm going to make in the next little while hear. Seems like there is another baby boom going on out there. Now the girl having the baby already knows its a girl so I have used mostly pink.
The mice were colored with copics and cut out with an oval nesti. I then cut out a scalloped oval to put behind it. Then a a little bright green behind that and primas with sm silver button brads for the corners. I used a ms infinity punch and added that to the top & bottom of the main image. The bow is from a sizzlet die. I also used a ms border punch for the the top & bottom of the card. The baby pins were made with safety pins that I added white fabric paint to make them look like baby pins. Not sure that anyone knows what those look like anymore with huggies & such. I used an oval marvey punch to cut 3 metallic amber ovals to go under the pins and used green stickles to go around the outside.
I used another HM stamp on the inside - Monica with Pacifier, which of course, you can't see. This was a lot of fun to make which is a good thing because I have a couple more to make in the near future here.
Thanks so much for taking a minute to look at my card and enjoy your evening.

I can see you are a big fan of HM. I don't think I've seen this adorable image before. Sooo cute. Love the pins. And you have a lock on coloring these sweeties up.
