Stampin' In Alaska

  While cleaning my craft room yesterday I came across a few panels in my stash that were colored.  This features a digital stamp from a company who is no longer in business - Craftin Desert Divas.  It is always sad when a craft company goes out of business.  But I still enjoy using their great products! This image was colored with Copic Markers and die cut.  The designer paper was also in my stash.  A few pearls and digital sentiment complete the card. I would like to share my card with the following: Simon Says Stamp Wednesday:  Focus on the Sentiment Allsorts Challenge:  #828 Pretty Flowers Stamping Sensations:  Summer Flowers Polkadoodles Challenge:  #8 Anything Goes

  I'm sharing a fun mousey card featuring House Mouse Designs Breezy Day stamp  set by Spellbinders. The image was stamped onto watercolor paper, colored with Prisma Color pencils and blended with baby oil.  A cloudy sky was created by masking and inking with distress inks.  The card base was created with acrylic paint and my Geli plate.  A few Stampin' Up! dew drops and coordinating sentiment complete the card.
