Mickey

(Spotlight technique)

Mickey

(The mice are mounted with 3D dots and the two leaves are glued in the middle and the edges are curved up to look more realistic)

Mickey

(Cup closest is mounted with 3D foam dot and cotton was used to enhance the steam from the teapot spout. I just glued it with a little Crystal Lacquer. I also used the Crystal Lacquer in the cups around the mice.)

Mickey

(I made the whole tea set 3D, cut the top off the teapot and glued a mouse to it so when you pull the top up, the mouse comes out. Again, I used cotton to simulate steam.)

Inger (Midwest Stampers)

(This one is adorable! I love how the aspirin is cut with the decorative scissors! Just darling. Looks like she used crystal lacquer on the ice cube too!)

Delia (NSRAK)

Delia used bleach to take the color out of the card stock after black embossing. She then re-colored the images with watercolors so they are very vivid. Really neat!)

Francine (NSRAK)

(Darling card with very glittery dragonfly wings!)

Doreen (NSRAK club)

(Doreen dry embossed a rectangle around this mousy. It really gives the card definition)

        4.  Mix colors - pick up a little of each color (for ex.
             brown + golden yellow = fawn)
