MFT Stamps July Outside the Box Challenge


Hello Crafty Friends! Happy Friday! There's a new Outside the Box Challenge from My Favorite Things. The theme this month is Happy Birthday. Come play along for a chance to win a $50 MFT Gift Voucher!

I have a sweet little boxcard to share with you today featuring these absolutely adorable mice from the Birdie Brown Mice Day to Celebrate set. I am so in love with all of the Birdie Brown illustrations!

I stamped the images from the Mice Day to Celebrate onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb card stock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I colored the images with Copic markers and accented with gel pens. I fussy cut out the images since I didn't have the coordinating Mice Day to Celebrate Die-namics to cut them out with. 

COPIC COLORS
Mice: E50/51/53/55, R000/00, C7
Green: YG00/01/03
Teal: BG000/11/23
Red: R20/22/24/29
Cupcake: E40/41, E50/51/53/55


Smooth White and Kraft cardstock were used with the Outside the Box Die-namicsOutside the Box Low Profile Add-On Die-namics, and Outside the Box Snow Drifts Die-namics to diecut the necessary parts for the boxcard. I also used Smooth White and Licorice Black cardstock to diecut the Big Birthday Wishes Die-namics. I diecut two layers of the word die for some dimension. For the BIG word, I diecut the second (back) layer out of black to have it stand out a bit from the background.

I used Tumbled Glass and Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide to ink blend the hills and the background with the Mini Cloud Edges Stencil. 

For additional support, I cut and adhered a layer of acetate behind the top two rows of letters. I assembled all of the parts with liquid adhesive.
