I decided I wanted to incorporate a "home made" stamp using an image from one of my previous House Mouse ATCs that you can see HERE. There is this really cool web site that allows you to frame your images and one of the frames is to make it into a postage stamp. I've done THIS card with the same web site.
So I decided to make a the stamp and place it on an envelope for my little mouse to be recieving. But then, I needed him to 'be somewhere'. So, I decided to use the faux wood technique to make him on a wooden floor. I tell you, when I first saw some cards with this technique it looked hard...but it is so very easy!! You should definately try it if you haven't already!! I made another card for Chris' barn yard swap using the same technique (this link will be provided when I get the card loaded into my gallery-thanks for being patient). The little mouse is colored with prismas and odorless paint thinner (my fav way to color in these guys).
I sure hope everyone likes him! It was a fun ATC to make!
Thanks for visiting.

Adorable! That stamp is just perfect -- what a fun idea to use a previous ATC on it. And the wood floor looks so realistic! Another awesome ATC, Donelda!!
jYour card is amazing, I love your little stamp and that wooden floor is fabulous. I so want to try that technique, thanks for the inspiration
your card is very cute, I love it.
Oh my word, Donelda! Your ATCs are ALWAYS amazing, but this one is too, too cute. The wood floor is perfect, and the cute little stamp of your previous ATC -- oh my goodness, it is WAY OVER THE TOP! You are so creative. I need some of that to rub off on me to try new things. Okay, that's it. I am trying the faux wood technique SOON! Even the detail in the molding in the bg, wow, girl! You think of all the little details. :) Kel
