How to Make a Winter Mouse Slimline Card

January 1, 2026 by Heather Holbrook

How to Make a Winter Mouse Slimline Card

How adorable is this cozy Winter Mouse card from Caitlin!? This time of year after the Holidays are over is a great time to tell someone you’re thinking of them and send them some warm Winter wishes. For her design she used a mouse rubber stamp from Purple Onion Designs and colored him with Copic Markers, placing him on layers of snowflake and plaid pattern papers on a long slimline card base. There’s also a sweet sentiment made from stamped and die cut words, the large “Winter” was die cut from paper that she swiped with a blue ink pad. This technique is a great tip if you don’t have the exact cardstock color you need. To finish off the design she applied some tiny clay snowflakes for added texture.
