Accentuate the positive, eliminate the negative, latch-on to the affirmative and don’t mess with Mr. In-Between! You might recognize these lyrics sung by Bing Crosby and is still a fun reminder for us today.

This little mouse and sentiment is part of the Penny Black Homemade stamp set and is a perfect illustration to lift the spirits of a friend. Who can resist her cute critters?

Creation

This card was fun and fast to make. You could use any small image to create one for yourself! I just stamped the image in memento black in random places, then again on a separate piece of cardstock. I colored the single image with Copic markers and fussy cut then stamped the sentiment. After cutting down the black and white stamped panel, I matted it using black and yellow panels and a white card base. With foam strips I popped up the colored image against a black and white image, added some sparkle to the lemon with a glitter pen, and thats it!

I hope you enjoyed this. Stay positive! Hugs all around – Kathy
