I always like to have a stash of birthday cards on hand. I love these little "mousies" peeking out from under the party hat. I made a background by sponging oxide inks on my card stock, then spritzing water on a number stencil and laying it over the sponged backgrouind. When I lifted off the stencil the water lifted off some of the ink and left a light image of the numbers. After it was dry I used a birthday embossing folder and ran it through my machine.
