Hey friends!
I’m hopping along with the i-crafter team today to showcase the brand new February release! Be sure to hop along and check out all of the amazing inspiration from the team.
I’ve got a video over on my YouTube channel showing the full release and a bit of inspiration for you as well! You can watch the video below or HERE on YouTube.
To create this card, I used the Animalope die set and assembled what I intended to be a cute little mouse. As you can see in the photos, my mouse has a little bit of RBF going on and I learned the important lesson that the position of the eyes makes a different in the attitude of your critter LOL.
I decided to do a little lettering on my card front because I didn’t have the right sentiment for this sassy little mouse. I used a pencil and drew in the lettering and then when over it with a Spectrum Noir ArtLiner pen.
I pulled out my trusty label maker for the rest of my sentiment and I love it! I printed out ‘luck next time’ on clear label tape and adhered it to a piece of grey cardstock. It looks like a stamped sentiment – so cool!
I attached my mouse to the top of my card so that when you open it, there’s somewhere for those cute ears to go. You can tuck a gift card right inside the envelope and you’re good to go. A quick and easy greeting card and gift card holder in one. Win!
Let’s hop right on through and see what the rest of the team has created for you today. The full list is below:
Thanks so much for stopping by today. Be sure to leave a comment and let me know what you think about this new release. Which product is your favorite?
Hugs and love,
Jess, you mouse card is so creative and your lettering! (swoon) It is so playful! Love it!

I love your sassy little mouse. She’s upset because she didn’t have a good day and needs a movie pass to take her mind off reality things. And in crafting, even angry critters are totally adorable. I also loved your video showing what happens during a “first run” card. I can totally relate.
