fresh & fun

I stamped another trifold. This time with a cute mouse from My Favorite Things. I had the mouse in the house for a while now and it was time to get her all dirty. This trifold is like Cami’s trifold, but with different measurements and without the slit punch. It will fit in one of the small open ended envelopes Stampin’ Up! sells.

I stared with a 6 1/2″ x 9 1/2″ piece of Pretty in Pink Cardstock. I scored at 3 1/2″ and 7″. I then added a 2 3/4″ x 4″ piece of saffron designer paper with white circles from the Spring Flower pack. I thought it would go good with this card. I layered a chocolate chip scallop circle over it and cut a circular window out with my Coluzzle.

Here is how the inside looks like:

I stamped the mouse in Brown Stazon on Whisper White and colored the image in with So Saffron, Pretty in Pink, Chocolate chip and Brocade blue and my aqua painter. I then layered it on a piece of chocolate cardstock and taped it down. Since MFT stamps are clear, you can bend the image on your acrylic block to shape them not just in a straight line. That’s what I did with my greeting on the front.

I tied the card shut with ribbon. and taped a little cheese that I had colored and punched out with the 1 1/4″ circle punch underneath.

I really like this cute set. It also comes with a cow and three sayings. I will have to use that next.
