To start this card I cut a piece of teal cardstock to 8.5" by 3.5" for my cardbase.  I used the same teal cardstock to die cut the windows using the Slimline Frames and Windows Die Set.  I used the scalloped frame from the Slimline Frames and Portholes Die Set to cut a piece of Kraft cardstock.  Using the Falling Leaves Stencil, I blended Distress Oxide Inks Spiced Marmalade, Peacock Feathers, and Vintage Photo to create a gorgeous fall background on the Kraft cardstock!  

Next, I stamped out these super cute mouse images from the Autumn Mice Stamp Set, colored them with Copic markers, and cut them out using their coordinating die set

I cut a piece of teal cardstock for my sentiment using a die from the Slimline Frames and Windows Die Set.  I stamped the sentiment in brown pigment ink and clear heat embossed for some shine!  Here are a couple of close-ups!

With all of my pieces complete, it was time to assemble my card!  I adhered the Falling Leaves background to the teal cardbase, and used foam tape to pop up the teal windows.  I then adhered all of my images and sentiment with foam tape for some dimension!

For finishing touches on this card I added accents with a white gel pen, and glossy accents to their cute little noses!  Now it's time to get your paws inky creating a project for the Color Challenge using your Newton's Nook Designs products.  Be sure to link up to the Inky Paws Challenge!  Hope to see you there!
