First Cards of 2012

Love this look, BUT it's just an overhead lamp bouncing off from the white on the back of the wing. I used colored pencils on this and used a double layer for the mouse and butterfly. I left one wing free to look more 3 D. I inked around the edges of the white card before adhering it to the red card base.










I fell in love with this Mouse House stamp. I have a friend who loves strawberries....she will probably get this one for her birthday. I used colored pencils and then Distress Ink for the sky. I used two layers on everything except the mouse and the front berry---they have three layers.

Learning New Things

I tried a reflection picture.














My second try at a wood floor. I first did a 90 degree angle, but with the second one I use a larger angle.










This morning I watched a video on making a wooden floor. This is my first attempt. Needs some practice, but now I know how. What fun!
I'll put this on a card and say something like:
"I like hanging out with you" or "Let's hang out!"
