I so love these adorable House Mouse Stamps. This is such a cute image - I coloured it with copic markers. I created the background paper using a Martha Stewart pattern stamp and bashful blue ink. Then I embossed the panel. Matted the panel with burgundy card stock, added the two different ribbons and sewing around the edge. Added the mini white brads. Matted the image panel with Burgundy cardstock and sewed around the edges. Finished assembling the card. Applied stickles to the outer edge of the base panel and to the blown up balloon.
Thanks for looking,
Hugs.. Pat

The embossing folder really makes it look like a counted cross stitch panel. Of course, your trademark stitching is always an special touch. Thanks for making a fun sample for the challenge.

House Mouse should be inducted into the stamping Hall of Fame! they are so cute. Really love this one and all the colors of balloons. The textures you have on the BG panel and the burlap ribbon add lots of fun to the card.

I love the HM image- one I do not have- and it's so cute- and colored so masterfully! Great look with the embossed BG and I always love the look of stitching on a card! Beautifully done!
