# 344 HMFMC, ATG option theme Easel card

Welcome Monday and welcome to a new

House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge.

 

This time the lovely Karin is hosting

and the theme is

 

ANYTHING GOES

+ the option of

EASEL CARD

I love making easel cards, I think the fold make

your card look the little extra.

 

 

 The image is called 'Martini Mice'.

 

I made the card to go together with a gift for our

'in-between-boy' who just finished his master's degree.

 

No design paper today, just gold and black, 

(I had to make it match the packing paper)

and a sentiment saying 'congrats'.

 

The card and gift. 

 

The gift is a wine carafe,

and the 'Martini Mice' image was the most appropriate I had

in my growing HM collection.

We have two generous SPONSORS this time!

My project for today is a bit different, it's something

I've wanted to share with you for a while.

 

 When I make a card I always finish the backside

with a 'handmade by Dorte' stamp.

I have some different stamps, but the one I uses most

is the one with my name, my blogspot name and a decoration.

 

I have another one, a plaine circle with a

'Handmade by Dorte'

Today I'll show you a little 'How to'.

You can use some of your poorly stampes images- I'm

sure you all know what I'm talking about.

To find the best part of the image I have cut out a circle

in the the rigth sieze and move it around untill I'm happy with the look.

Stamp with the 'plain' handmade by and die cut it.

Now it's time for the fun to begin, you have to colour up your small images.

 

Finally I choose some maching backing paper and design paper.

And suddently your backside looks a better! 

I hope I have inspired you to try, if not I hope you will join 

in the challenge using the 'Anything Goes' or 'Make it small' theme.
