A MAZE-ing Mothers Class Card

Today at Mothers Class, we made this card.  We only lost one bead in the process!

Before class, I precut the circle opening in a variety of dsp overlays using a Nestabilities circle die.  Then in class, we each stamped the maze and cheese on white scrap pieces and punched them out with a 2" punch.  Laying the mazes  upside down on the table, we easily removed the backing and substituted the stamped maze image.  The hard part was lining up the stamped maze with the actual paths on the plastic cover without losing the beads.

Next, we stamped the mouse and sentiment, punching them out and mounting them on the card front as shown.  Before inserting the maze piece into the hole, we ran a tiny line of TomBow white glue around the edge of the maze and laid the dsp over it.  The cardfront was then attached to the white base with SU dimensionals.  Finally, we added the embroidery floss on the side.

An a-MAZE-ing time was had by all!
