Hello everyone! I have some fun cards to share with you that I created with some of Spellbinders’ House Mouse Everyday Collection. House Mouse has been around in the stamping community for a long time now. I have been making cards since 1999, and I do believe some of my first wood-mounted stamps were some House Mouse images. I had a lot of fun creating these cards, and watercoloring these images. It brought back a lot of fond memories.

Alright, now to the fun cards I have to share with you-
House Mouse Everyday Collection, Spellbinders
To create these cards, I started by stamping and embossing the images on the smooth side of Distress Watercolor Cardstock. I used Versafine Onyx Black ink, stamped the images a few times using a Misti, and then embossed them with ultrafine clear embossing powder.
I then watercolored them with Distress Watercolor Pencils. This was an easy way to add color to these fun scenes. I added a hint of shadow around the images and filled the ground with some fun watercolored texture. If you want to learn more about Distress Watercolor Pencils, check out my online class!
For the sentiments I white embossed on black cardstock, and cut the sentiments into strips. Whenever I do ANY embossing, I prep the surface using the Cottontail Embossing Powder Tool. I stamp the sentiment several times over using a Misti and Yeti white pigment ink, then sprinkle the Alabaster White embossing powder from Brutus Monroe.
I then embellished the some of the cards with all the sparkly things! I added a touch of Prisma Glitter with a Quickie Glue Pen. I added Distress Rock Candy with Distress Collage Medium. I also added a sprinkle of Chunky Glitter with Glossy Accents. Glitter All Of The Things!
Again, these cards were so fun to create! Hope you have enjoyed them!

These are so cute Jenn. The Distress watercolor pencils seem like a good fit for these designs.
House Mouse are one of my faves. Lawn Fawn are tops. Plus others but those two are in my top five! I love the color pencil look!
