Happy Tuesday.... I managed to combine three challenges - colour (bashful blue, so saffron and pumpkin pie), ways to use it - stamp it again (image stamped twice, one cut out & popped over the other) and technique - hinge card. House Mouse image - "In a Nutshell" was stamped twice on watercolour paper in stazon jet black and water coloured with reinkers. Cut out one image. Clear embossed the water to give it a shine. Cut out image with circle nestability, matted twice. Cuttle bugged blue panel with divine swirls folder - added stickles to the swirls and the flower top. Used Martha Stewart scalloped border punch on pumpkin pie and striped dp. added the ribbon and sentiment brad.

Patricia, you are the queen of doing the most challenges on one card! AND you do them all so very well. This card is darling. I love your resting little mouse, so very cute floating in a nut shell. I love the cb bg with the sparklies on it. You even stitched on this hinge card. WOW. Say, my DH bought me a road bike. I remember reading onetime about a bike trip you went on. So when he brought this bike home I thought of you! Not sure what message he is trying to give me.......maybe get out of the house instead of behind the craft table! Yikes....NEVER....Love your card! TFS :0)
