House mouse image stamped in Memento Black ink. Coloured with copic markers. Die cut the image. Matted with a scalloped oval and then a plain oval. Sponged the edges of the kraft ovals with close to cocoa ink. Used a gold metalic pen on the larger kraft oval edge. I had made the green patterned paper a little while ago, using glossy photo paper. I dragged my old olive ink pad down the card stock and then the opposite way to make a checkered design. I cut a strip of that paper and used a piece of plaid card stock. Using the sketch I created the bottom panel Sewed around the edge. Punched out some corners with kraft cardstock. Sponged the edges. Folded the corners in half and sponged down the centers. Attached to the cornersl with white mini brads. Popped up the adorable HM image. Added the sentiment. Finished the inside of my card.

Wonderful card! Terrific papers and layering. Love the corner treatments and stitching. I like how you decorated the inside, too. Welcome to the team and thanks for supporting the 800th Sketch Challenge.

Adorable card, Pat. Like the punny message and the image us darling and colored beautifully. TFS how you created the green panel and you chose a terrific DP to pair with it.

yeah that mousie looks a little flushed (but happy), hope the tea isn't too hot. Terrific sewing, I love the look but am terrified of doing it. Sweet card!
