House Mouse Sweet Moments Trio
Welcome friends! This is Amanda from Twiddler’s Nook. I’m excited to be on the Spellbinders blog today with a trio of cards featuring the new House Mouse Sweet Moments Collection. I love these images, especially watercoloring them in mini scenes. I often find that they are an odd shape and don’t conform to regular dies though, so today I have an idea to share with you using the awesome Spellbinders Notch Punch to create your own layered effect. I started by cutting pieces of Bristol Smooth Cardstock to fit each scene and then stamped my images and sentiments with VersaFine ink. I knew I was going to watercolor and this…
