Thank You

A special day for me today because I'm Guest Designing for Less is More's color challenge. Yay!  This fortnight we're using the Pantone colors of the year for both 2019 (Living Coral) and 2020 ( True Blue).


That's what I call starting the New Year right...
 ...and since thank you cards are the order of the day, this WaffleFlower mouse fits the bill:
Began by stamping the image and masking it. Using a very old Papertrey Ink stripe and a MISTI, stamped alternate colors of Catherine Pooler's Suede Shoes (blue) and The Stamp Market's Coral Reef. Removed the mask and colored the mouse using the same inks. Stamped an Altenew sentiment and done. These would be very easy to mass produce once the stripes were set up on the MISTI.

Many, many thanks to Less Is More for allowing this opportunity. It was tons of fun.

    I just ran across those stripes in my stash the other day - what a great way to use them. Love this sweet little mouse grounded on the challenge colors and enjoying a cuppa. It is always wonderful to see your creations,a nd fabulous to have your designing with us at Less Is More. Thanks so much!
