My coffee, creamy, chocolaty dream!!

Good Afternoon to all,

I am happy to say that I am done with this weeks House Mouse challenge,

brought to us by America: Multiple Images.

The concept is to use multiple images, either by restamping the same image multiple times,

splicing up an image into several frames,

using different images in one project, etc.

I also intend to submit this card in this weeks Colour Create Challenge,

as their colour pallette is Chocolate, coffee and cream

with the optional challenge of adding distressing to the enrty.

For my mousies, I went with a chocolate theme and since chocolate is

my favorite thing in the universe,

I really had to take this project seriously!!

I used 3 HM images, Chocolate Truffles (Stampa Rosa!! '97),

Peppermint Delight, and Chocolate Delight.

I stamped Chocolate Truffles about 70 times (j/k, 4 times) and layered its components to make

an actual chocolate box and for lots of dimensional chocolates!!

Sorry Mudpie, I know this stamp was all about you, but.... I covered Mudpie so I could have

all the mice in there...

Chocolate Delight has been pierced out and scattered about the project.
Peppermint Delight is how I got Monica in here, I cut her mint out and

gave her a truffle instead.


I used watercolors on the images,

put a little diamond liquid over the chocolate.

For depth, I glued Monica directly

on the choco pile,

Mudpies feet are glued onto a truffle and

I raised his head and candy up with a

foam mount (wanted him to look like he was

REALLY into that chocolate!!)

Maxwell and Amanda are resting on

3-D glue dots.

For the box, I used craft card stock,

layered it over the stamped image, added a little bit of structural elements,

and heat embossed the lettering with clear powder, then coloured it in with

watercolor pencils.

Thank you for stopping by and checking out my card.

Leave me a comment, I LOVE feedback from

my fellow crafters!!

Enjoy your day, Stephanne
