Good Morning everyone
Today is the 2nd card I made for Kitty-Bea's birthday for me to give to her. I used the fab mouse Katzelkraft stamp i got for Christmas to make a cheese shaped card and afterwards decided to make a matching box for a few sweets for her.
Card size approx 6x4" . I folded yellow card in half and then cut to size, first a rectangle and then i just used my guillotine to cut the top edge at an angle. I took a brighter yellow card and cut to the same size as the base and then die cut lots of small circles into it, with a bigger one to the right to add my sentiment too. I then mounted this panel onto the base with foam tape after inking the edges.
I stamped 3 mice and watercoloured with distress inks 'blueprint sketch' 'peacock feathers', cracked pistachio & picked raspberry. I then cut them out. Gently adding some shape to the body i attached one whole mouse to the card front. The 2nd one i cut up and slotted into the 'holes' on the cheese. Glossy accents to the mouse nose, eyes & camera. Computer printed sentiments to finish using a very apt font called 'grilled cheese'.
and the box - i found a cake slice box template on my craft artist which i printed out, cut out and then drew around it onto the yellow cardstocks to build up the box the same way as the card. I put the closing flap on the bottom edge and sealed with red liner tape.
and i made a 2nd card for a friend who loves Katzelkraft stamps as mush as I do, this time i also cut the right hand edge of the card at an angle to give an even more cheese wedge shape and some bling to embellish.
Items Used:
Katzelkraft stamps 'solo 179' 'La souris photographe'
Circle dies
Speech bubble die
Distress inks peacock feathers, blueprint sketch, cracked pistachio, picked raspberry
Yellow cardstock
