Sprinkles of House Mouse Designs® with Friends

This week and next, we're having a different kind of blog hop, including friends on the other side of the world and across the pond. this will include the Woodware UK team, the Stencil Specialists in Australia, the House Mouse and Friends team, and of course...the Stampendous team. All of us will be playing along with the team on the House Mouse and Friends Blog. Everyone will be challenged to use a stencil with their House Mouse Designs® by Stampendous. What makes this hop really different is, in order to win one of the amazing prize packages available, YOU need to play along with the challenge as well! Just submit your own creations HERE using the Linky tool for the HMFMC #215 challenge. There will be three prize packages available, each including ONE House Mouse Designs® Cling Rubber Stamp, plus ONE Large Dreamweaver stencil, and ONE jar of Dreamweaver Embossing Paste.

Here is what I've created for this challenge...

Did you ever think you'd have an opportunity to break out your Stampendous Creative Palette* to use along with House Mouse Designs®*? I did just that to create this card featuring the Cling "Rain Flower"* stamp image. Various shades of neon re-inkers were dropped onto a slightly wet Creative Palette* before using a brayer to blend the colors slightly. Panels of Mixed Media White* cardstock were placed over the wet ink, and swirled a bit, transferring the ink to the panels. (Keep wetting the ink a bit with water to get more panels until you've run out of ink. This makes it easier to clean your CP, plus provide you with cool backgrounds for future use.) On this particular panel, I sprinkled the wet ink in patches with Stampendous' "Spoonful of Confetti" Essentials mix*, and heated until melted and shimmery.

The little cutie was stamped in black ink, and colored with markers in bright colors.

Has the House Mouse and Friends hop "measured up" these last two weeks? We hope so! How about this darling House Mouse Designs® Cling "Measuring Up" image, stamped in black Memento ink, and colored with Copic Sketch markers? The colored image has been die cut with the Dreamweaver Nested Frames die set, and inked around the edges. A sentiment from the Stampendous Perfectly Clear House Mouse Designs® "Hoppy Moments" set.

The background was created using the Dreamweaver I Beams stencil machine-embossed on the Core'dinations' Chalk Core cardstock in the soft golden color. I used a sanding block to reveal the color from the embossed surface. The completed panel was adhered to a kraft card along with the focal panel. A couple strips of "measuring tape" trim was adhered to mimic the ruler in the image.

House Mouse Designs® with Friends Across the "Pond"

This week and next, we're having a different kind of blog hop, including friends on the other side of the world and across the pond. this will include the Woodware UK team, the Stencil Specialists in Australia, the House Mouse and Friends team, and of course...the Stampendous team.

Here is what I've created for this challenge...

Those rascally mice are at it again! This time they're stealing all of the cookies in a well-executed plan of thievery in the House Mouse Designs® "Cling Cookie Bandits"*. Somewhere, I'm sure, is a wanted bulletin, because who wouldn't want these critters?

The image has been stamped in black ink, and colored with markers, and in an attempt to mimic the green of depression glass, the jar has been colored and shaded in greens, brushed over the surface with Translucent Embossing Paste*, and is casting a reflection through the "glass" onto the delightful wallpaper. The wallpaper has been achieved by masking off the image before placing the Dreamweaver Pattern Background* stencil over the panel, and ink-stenciling in brown using a large stencil brush. Sprinkles of Stampendous "Spoonful of Rust"* were added to the completed card and heated to "encrust" them all together, suggesting a mess of cookie crumbs left behind with footprints to be collected as evidence by the crime lab.

Resting with House Mouse and Friends with a Touch of Dreamweaver

Featuring the Cling House Mouse Designs® "Sunflower Smile", which I've stamped in Rich Cocoa Memento ink on kraft cardstock and colored with Copic Markers, this card is full of warm fuzzies.

I've ink-stenciled a portion of the Dreamweaver Honeycomb design in the backgrouond, and added the sweet Cling Moment's Rest sentiment. The focal panel has been layered on green cardstock, and adhered onto a card created from Canvas Corp dotted cardstock, embellished with a strip of May Arts web ribbon, and sprinkles of Stampendous Color Fragments in Caramel.
