Over at Out of a Hat Creations they have gone all oriental. I decided to decorate another mousetrap. After giving the base a coat of gesso I painted it with a bright red Steward Gill paint. I stamped the background writing in black Stazon from a stamp on the Paperartsy Asian plate 3 set. The images are from a mini book called ATC Oriental Paper Pad by Leisure Arts. Oriental charms were added to finish.

I've never seen this before; a mouse trap for oriental mice. But I think they will like it as much as I do LOL.

Oriental and mousetrap really go well together for some bizarre reason.
Hi Sam
I love your Asian mousetrap and just for fun I'm going to ask my friend to bring you one from China so you can alter it! He asked what I wanted so he's going to get a shock!
Wouldn't the mousetraps make great calendars with the date pages in the trap bar?
Love jo x

that's looks really good Sam!
For some reason your oriental theme works really well on the mouse trap! I'm still intrigued by how you paint these without getting trapped. Am I being particularly dense??!!

It took a good couple of looks before I realised it was a mousetrap!! You have done a fab job of altering this. Love the intensity of that red background. Superb job Sam. Hugs, Buttons x
