Millie the mouse and two new floral cards













Just a quick post with the latest cards I've added on sharedcards.com. The first two are Millie the Mouse. This is a clever clear stamp set that comes with various items you can put in Millie's hand and on Millie's head so you might see more of Millie later.

The next two are A7 sized cards in a male-ish and female version. Flowers might be pushing it depending on the guy but it is at least blue. The oval is unusually tall so I had to fussy cut it out and the mat layers out by using a tracing wheel. There are actually two ribbons on the pink versions to get the width I needed so its construction is actually a little more interesting than it appears at first glance.

The coloring is of course Copic markers. I keep saying I need to make a card that doesn't use them but being able to color your stamped image opens up a whole new world of rubber stamps you can use and lets you tie in a bunch of different colors easily so they are proving hard to put down.

As always click on the card for bigger images and directions and if you want to read a lot more about how they got created, each of these has their own post on http://sharedcards.blogspot.com/.
