Joy Easel

 

This is for a friend called Joy it's her birthday soon.  I know she will love the House Mouse.

I used a side opening card as the base.  The image is House Mouse.  The patterned paper has frosty glitter on some of the flowers, and I used blue double sided Cuttlebug card for the circle and mats.  The Cuttlebug card has two shades of the same colour and that meant the circle looked good from the other side too.  The diecut circle was stamped with Versamark ink in a random dotty pattern and embossed with Stampendous Stardust glitter EP.  The HOuse mouse stamp is coloured with Inktense coloured pencils with white gel pen highlights.

For the stopper I used a brad and punched a flower (Martha Stewart), I put little dots of white gel pen on the brad and centre of the punched flowers to match the image flower.  Stickles is added to the sprigs of greenery.  It really does sparkle.
