more new cards

Some more new stamps that I got at a garage sale. I absolutely love house mouse stamps. This one is just so fun. I colored the image using colored pencil and goo gone. It gives a great soft look to the image. I added the sentiment on punched circles and a scalloped square. Red stickles was added to the sentiment for some sparkle.Monochromatic cards are so great. This is what I came up with for a monochromatic look. I did the two different cuttlebug embossings on white core paper, so the designs show up when sanded. It is so easy but looks great. I just added simple black twill ribbon and the stamped image. There is a little half pearl in the corner of the stamped panel, too.
I just love these fun little owl stamps from Hero Arts. I had to have them and had to make something with them right away. I stamped the branch multiple times using green ink and colored it in with brown colored pencil. The owls are colored with colored pencil and goo gone. I added the scalloped piece behind the owl piece and attached pink ribbon and a little prima flower. The background paper is from the Target dollar spot. I think it goes well with these little owls.
