Hello friends! It’s been about 10 days since the Clearly Besotted December release went live. And I have one last card for you from the release. Well, actually it’s a sentiment set that I couldn’t pass by and I thought I would pair it with some super cute mice that were released last year.
The new sentiment set is a bit different to others you will have seen from Clearly Besotted, at least for a little while, as it is a bold scripty font, much larger than most of their current sentiment sets. And I LOVE a big bold sentiment. The set is called Festive Flourish, and with a flourish, here is my card for today.
Nothing too complicated about this card. The three mice from the set Merry Mouse were stamped and coloured with Copics (numbers listed below) and fussy cut. I then took the tree from Trimming The Tree and stamped, coloured and fussy cut that too (this sweet set is currently on sale). I set all these to one side.
The Merry Christmas sentiment was stamped with Versacolor Pigment Ink (Camelia). And I did stamp it 3 or 4 times to get the red that I wanted as it has slightly pinky tones. I cut the panel down using a Hero Arts Rectangle Infinity die and matted it onto a SSS Fog card base.
I then adhered the tree flat to the panel, and the mice were popped up with foam tape. I added a little bit of shadow/ground for them so they didn’t float away. And for the final detail, they got some white gel pen, some shimmer pen and some black glaze pen, but I am sure they would have been more happy with the cookies or cheese in the stamp set!
And that finishes my card. I am super happy I got to play with these little mice once more and hope I get the opportunity to use the Festive Flourish set again soon as not all of the sentiments included are geared towards Christmas.
Thank you for stopping by, I appreciate every single visit from you and always welcome a comment if you have time. I will be back soon with another card for you. Have a great day!
