Gerda Steiner Designs Cupcake Mice Make a Wish

Hello Crafty Friends! I am so happy and honored to be guest designing again for Gerda Steiner Designs! I am back with a fun birthday card showcasing another absolutely adorable image from the new Cupcake Mice set. I just love the amazing illustration! The facial expressions and body language are just perfect! 

First, I stamped the images 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. Next, I fussy cut the images out with a sharp pair of scissors. 

COPIC COLORS:

Mouse: E50/51/53/33, R00/20, R000/00/20, C7

Hat: RV21/23/25

Cupcake: RV21/23/25, E53/55, Y13

For my background, I took a piece of pink cardstock and diecut it using the scallop die from My Favorite Things (MFT) Blueprints 27 Die-namics. 

For the sentiment, I used one of the sentiments from the set but masked off the "wish" part before inking it up and then stamping directly onto the panel. Next, I diecut the letters for the word WISH four times out of white cardstock using the MFT Impact Alphabet Die-namics. I layered and adhered the letters to each other before aligning them and adhering them to the pink panel with liquid adhesive. 

I adhered the mouse and cupcake to the panel with some foam tape for a bit of dimension and interest. Finally, I adhered the panel to a white cardbase (4.25" x 5.5") and finished the card the card with a few Pretty Pink Posh Sparkling Clear Sequins.

As always, I appreciate you taking the time to stop by and visit today. I hope you liked my card.  I had so much fun playing with this super adorable GSD Cupcake Mice set and truly appreciated this amazing Guest Designer opportunity. Please also visit my INSTAGRAM feed for more inspirations.
