A local group does a Dine & Swap night where once a month we all go to dinner together and swap cards. Every month is a different theme. February was Easter/Spring. March was Flora & Fauna.
Hobby Lobby carries a few of the House Mouse Stamps and I have been really wanting one for a while and this gave me a reason to give in. This stamp is called "She Loves me." Plus it was a crop day at Hobby Lobby which means SHOPPING! I had my basic tools with me but I purchased the stamp, papers and mini dollie back there and began my project.
I stamped the image with Memento Black Ink on watercolor paper and used clear embossing powder. I then water colored my image. I used a two piece gate fold tutorial to make my card base. Once I pieced my card together I felt like it need a bit more to the image and my dear crop friends suggested and one let me use Stickles to add to the card.
I love the look of stickles but I hate waiting for it to dry. I'm not good at being patient. Lucky there were shelves hanging up high so I placed the image there to dry while I worked on something else. This Double Dutch Card is cute and fun.
During our dine & swap everyone created one card with the theme and put it in a pile. Everyone randomly gets a card as we go around the table. Lucky Momma got my card this month!
