I've kept the design rather CAS. My base is the Heavy Whisper White and then I've added a matte of Gorgeous Grape. I stamped the image and sentiment onto a piece of Mixed Media paper using the Versafine black ink so that it wouldn't smear when I watercoloured.
I had so much fun colouring the images, but you know how much I love these little House Mice. I used my Derwent Watercolour pencils and, of course, my Aqua Painter brush to turn the pencilled colour into gorgeous watercolour. Once that was totally dry, I put some Crystal Effects onto a pallette and mixed in a bit of water to make it easier to brush on. Using a very small brush, I covered the chocolate on the Mouse, on the floor, and dripping down the jar with the Crystal Effects mix. Once it dried, it looked so much like real chocolate that I wanted to lick it. Thank goodness for self restraint.
The sentiment isn't by Stampendous like the House Mouse image. Actually, I hunted around to find "the perfect sentiment". You know how hard that can be. But finally, in a rather old set which I haven't used for years, I found it. By Hero Arts, it's called "Friends" and came out in 2010. Old, but perfect.
Have fun checking out our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge and I hope you'll link your creation before the deadline on Monday, June 8th.
