Now I'm really counting down, only 2 more to go for the House Mouse Zodiac Sign Challenge. This time I made a card for The Virgin (22 Aug - 21 Sep). I didn't want to do a bride stamp, that would be to easy for me. So I choose the Mistle Toe stamp, that mouse looks very shy to receive a kiss so she could be the virgin. The colours that I choose (mainly white) are also based on virgin as in 'virgin white' (Dutch: maagdelijk wit). When I coloured the stamp I tried to pick as soft colours as possible to match it with the white card. To finish it off I placed some flowers, pearls and buttons on the card.
