Elizabeth Craft | Little Mouse Artist

Hello! Today, I’m sharing an art-themed card featuring the Little Mouse paired with the Art Accessories die set from Elizabeth Craft Designs. This sweet scene includes an easel, art supplies, and an outfit for the mouse. The mouse has painted a self-portrait for an extra charming touch. The sentiment is a cheerful reminder to embrace the joy of making and creating.

You may have noticed I’ve been making a lot of scene cards with my Elizabeth Craft Designs supplies lately. I’ve built up a fun mix of pieces to play with, and honestly, creating these little scenes has become a lovely escape for me.

    • Stamp the In the Kitchen sentiment onto a cardstock panel. Trim  the panel to 7″ x 5″ and ink the sky and ground. Add to a card base.
    • Cut the Little Mouse and Art Accessories from Soft Finish Cardstock. Color with Distress Oxide inks and assemble. This is the first time I have used Pumice Stone and Saltwater Taffy to color the mice.

Elizabeth Craft | Spring Rain Mice Card

Hello! Today’s card features the charming Big Mouse and Little Mouse die sets from Elizabeth Craft Designs, ready for the spring rain. I intentionally kept the design streamlined by choosing patterned paper for the background rather than building a die-cut scene. I finished the design with a BetterPress sentiment that reads “Hello, Sweet Friend.”

Elizabeth Craft | Dog Scene

Hello! Today, I’m sharing a large scene card created with the Dogs and Garden Edges and Fence die sets from Elizabeth Craft Designs. I love building vignettes with these dies, and this one came together as a countryside setting complete with hills, flowers, a classic mailbox, and of course, a sweet dog. All of the pieces were cut from soft finish cardstock and colored with Distress Oxide inks (after cutting), which adds depth and softness to the scene while keeping everything cohesive.

Elizabeth Craft Designs | Shaped Roses

Hello! When I work with the Paper Flowers Collection at Elizabeth Craft Designs, I like to take my time shaping each floral layer so that the roses feel full and realistic. For this 5″ x 7″ Thank You card, I created a vase arrangement with roses, small flowers, and leaves, letting the dimension do most of the work. I tucked a stamped tag sentiment into the bouquet for a finishing touch. The patterned paper background adds color without competing with the flowers.

    • Stamp the sentiment and cut with a tag die. I used a now retired Stampin’ Up Timeless Tropical stamp and a MFT tag die.
    • Place the vase on the prepared base with foam squares. Glue the roses, small flowers, and greenery to the card.
