Description:
I just had to make this cutsy Atc when I was sent this adorable "House Mouse" stamp in a Stamp swap. I had to cut out some elements to the stamp as it was too large to use for an atc but I still think it turned out nice! I'm hoping most that join will have a House Mouse stamp they can use! However, if you just have a cute critter and other background stamps to make it work please join up!! Hope to see many of you out! I am new to this group and hope to to create lots of fun and exciting swaps! I am "So" excited to be in a Canadian group!! Wahoo, I look forward to swapping with all of you! ;) Please PM me if you have an awesome idea you would like to see as a swap and I will try my best to design a swap for it! Happy Swapping! Have Fun and Craft On! Best Regards, Darcilena Standard rules apply. Please make 2 - (3.5X2.5) sturdy atc's for ONE partner! Atc #1 will be a cute critter design. Please try to use a few techniques and embellishments to make your atc unique and interesting. Atc #2 is senders choice. For my Lazy Bunny Atc I used a floral paper background, I colored in my stamp image with Copic markers then inked the white edges of my sturdy c/stock blue. For the final touches I glossy glazed the water and drink and added a few 3D flowers and 1 butterfly sticker. Oh yes, and 2 tiny gems!! Hope to see you out and Happy Swapping!

This atc pic looks so grainy but it really is the cutest card!

Ah, I think I get it, this is a card you were sent - but the swap is for a "house mouse". Nothing cuter than a mouse, I think :)

This is an adorable idea! :D

I don't have a mouse or a rabbit but I think I have some cute stamps to use for this. :D

No worries Enchanted ... you can use any critter but my least favorite are hedgehogs and I don't even know why?? LOL! Wouldn't Pepe' Le' Pew be the cutest...I love that little skunk!! Ha ha!

I don't know why but I am partial to the mice...they are the cutest little critters Ever! I have a swappy pal in the US that found 4 discount House Mouse and she's trading me for Christmas stamps. I can't wait to see them!

Ohhh and user6937, I did make the atc posted and it is Adorable...I kinda want to keep it for my own "Special" collection but that will teach me for not making two!! I was just playing around with the "new stamp" I had got from a swap! My friend has a box of House Mouse stamps but I can't borrow any at this time b/c she has gone thru 2 tragic ordeals in 1 month. The poor dear. So I will try and find some cutsey critters to stamp and send my partner a few images to color in. House Mouse is the Brand of stamp. Google it and you will see the most adorable stamps ever! magnolia stamps are cute too but my Fav's are House Mouse!!!

You can buy them at Hobby Lobby!! We don't have them in Canada! :( ecept the odd few at the craft store, think I'll go now and see if the stamp store has any "New" ones in. She doesn't order many and I don't like the ones she has!! I hope more people join before our cutoff!! Thanx for joining I was getting sad that nobody wanted to invote my little bunny in their home!! Take care and post anytime!! ;)

So it has to be House Mouse stamps? I have never heard of that particular brand.. I might be able to find it online. I have other cute critter stamps that are not that brand, is that still okay?

darcilena 11/ 2/2011 #

No, it can be "any" critter but hopefully cute!! LOL! I went to the scrap store to look at new House Mouse and out of 26 I only liked one stamp!...there was also one for a get well card. a mouse giving another mouse meds from a medicine dropper, I hope to get it some time. Guess I could still use it for atc's...good luck with your critter choices!! Can't wait to see them! ;)

I have lots of cute stamps, just not mice or rabbits.

Try as i might i couldn't seem to upload my new House mouse stamps but i just noticed today that they appeared! The bottom one is a mouse building a snow mouse (not a snowman)! LOL! Just thought I'd share them. I don't know why they scan so crappy. :(

I look forward to seeing everyone's cute critters!! ;)

I put my back out Sunday and have done very little in 3 days! well except see my chiro Dr over and over! Good thing he is a hunk...not so keen on the payments tho! LOl! I can only type for a few minutes and need to walk again! Let's swap...I bet they will all be adorable!! ;)
