Welcome
Some time ago I won a House Mouse image from Mia in her Birthday giveaway - I love these images and I was so happy to (finally) receive this one this past week, which I inked up and coloured in very short notice :)
I coloured it with my Faber Castell Polychromo pencils. I wanted it to take the eye, so I framed part of it with a snippet of purple card, then mounted it on the lemon coloured card base
The sentiment was stamped using CP Rouge ink, and the rhinestones added top and bottom
To add a wee bit more bling, I layered clear WoS over the violets.
The inside was decorated with some washi tape.

House Mouse stamps are always a delight Maxine and this one is no exception and you have coloured it beautifully. The Violets are a lovey element, one of the first signs os Spring here in the UK and always take me back go my childhood picking them from the hedgerows around the farm.
It's lovely to see you at We Love Chocolate Baroque this month, thanks so much for joining in.

I love House Mouse images, they are so dang sweet! Your card is fabulous Maxine and I so love the way you have color this cutie up! The purple mat looks so pretty and draws the eye in perfectly. Love the vertical sentiment, I need to use mine more often as I think I have two sets of vertical sentiments. The gems and the wink of stella make this card shimmer and shine. Love, love, love!

What a sweet card Maxine. So soft and pretty.
A beautiful card Maxine, and so prettily (and skilfully) coloured in. I am trying to come to grips with Polychromos so could do with a few lessons from you.
Again love how you link the inside of your cards with the cover.

Maxine: hello, my online crafting friend! I love your color choices for the card! The House Mouse images are always darling and I fell in love with the violets when I saw the close-up photo! Thanks for taking the extra time to do that! To see the sparkly shine reminded me of early morning dew droplets! The card is just adorably cute!
