Harvest Mice Card with Amanda

Hey, hey crafty friends, Amanda here! Are you dreaming of cooler fall weather?! Fall has been on my mind and I can’t stop making Fall cards! Today, I’m sharing this fun card I made for you using the Comic Strip Speech Bubbles Dies frame that was leftover from my card I shared last week.  

To create this card, I gathered an A2 card base and the Critter Country Paper. I choose a piece of paper that looked like a background for my scene. I trimmed the background paper down to 4.25”x5.5” and glued it to my card base. Then, I glued the frame to that, as well.

Next, I stamped out some of the images from the Harvest Mice and Fall Scenes stamps. I stamped extra rakes and leaves from the Fall Scenes stamps so each mouse would have a rake and there’d be plenty of leaves to rake!

I colored the images with Copic markers. Here are the colors I used:

Leaves: YR15, YR21, Y02, Y35, YR04, YR07, E30, E35, E37, E43, E44, E47, R56, R59, E04
Left mouse: W00, W1, W3, W5, W7, W9, R81, R85
Middle Mouse: E70, E71, E74, E77, E79, R81, R85, B00, B02, B05
Right Mouse: T0, T2, T4, T6, T7, R81, R83, R85

After coloring them, I added some dots and highlights with a white Gelly Roll pen. For my sentiment, I stamped the word “mice” first in Catherine Pooler Mandarin Spice ink. Then, I added the words to either side and stamped them with black ink. I used a paper trimmer to trim the sentiment down into a strip. For the banner edge, I used the tip of my scissors.

Now the fun part! Adding all the images and sentiment to the scene! I used 3D foam squares behind all the images and sentiment and then assembled them onto the card!   

I love how this little scene turned out! The little sweater is just TOO cute on that little mouse! 
I hope you are feeling inspired to go make something!! See you back here next week!
