For the last day of the reveals, the design team is showcasing the Garden Mice stamp set and coordinating dies. I think this is my favorite!  Here’s what they look like:

For my card below, I also used the Bokeh stencil set.  This card is really simple but I LOVE how this one turned out.

Here’s how I made my card:

• stamp and color the image with Copic markers (or any coloring medium of your choice)
• die-cut the image using the coordinating dies.
• cover a piece of some Bristol smooth white card stock with some painter’s tape.  (This card stock measured 3 1/4 x 5 1/2).
• use the Bokeh Stencil Set to ink up the card stock.  I used Fossilized Amber distress oxide ink with my mini-ink blending tool.
• use some stitched and arrow border dies to create the impression on the colored background.
• adhere this piece on some A2 size side-folding card base.
• adhere some black and white patterned paper on the side.
• adhere the mouse on the card using some foam adhesive.
• stamp the sentiment with Versafine onyx black ink.

Here’s a closer look:

I finished my design by adding some white dots using my Sakura white gel pen.  Here’s one last look:

That is all for this week!  I hope you guys LOVE the projects that we’ve made for you using the new stamps, dies and stencils by Newton’s Nook Designs.
