Look who got her new Waltzingmouse stamps yesterday. I couldn't wait to ink one to colour last night, who needs TV with new stamps!
As soon as this gent was 'Copic ed'.... I had to see him on a card.
I'm entering this card in this weeks Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge #72.
So in brief the details:
I cut around the outside edges of the image and popped him up with fine foam tape onto some gold card that had been cut into an oval with a Spellbinder die. This sits over some sponged white card ready to be attached to the card with two layers of foam.
Do you like the musical notes? that's another WMS set called Musical Backgrounds Stamped to white card using Memento London Fog Ink then distressed with Rangers Antique Linen. The second half is a sheet of Basic Grey Wassail dp that I embossed using Swiss Dots, then lightly sanded across the top.
Some gathered satin ribbon, a sentiment tag from Spellbinders plus the corner detail and my card was complete.
Hope you like this one!!!

I love nut crackers... I don't know what it is about them, but I love them! This card is wonderful... showcases your image perfectly!
So jealous, I'm still waiting for mine! Looks good - he really is yummy.
I think nut crackers are a wee bit scarey, but this guy is rather handsome and colored perfectly, Sue!
I believe this is the prettiest nutcracker card Ihave ever seen. This should definitely win a challenge!
