Even though it's only January, I had to use this adorable House-Mouse image for my card this week. Isn't it just the perfect Valentine?
This image is aptly named "Love Treat". Don't those adorable mice look like they're deep into a sugar high? Where a candy heart like this might be one of many we might consume in one sitting, I think it's going to last Mudpie and Amanda at least a week.
I used a base of the heavy Whisper White. Then I added a much smaller rounded corner matte of a sparkly pink glitter paper. On top of that I glued the watercoloured image. Of course I used my Derwent Watercolour pencils for this job. They offer such pretty, bright, clear colours. Besides, I love watercolouring.
This time I used a much lighter ink than normal to stamp my image. The Versafine Toffee is closer to the colour I imagine the hair would be on these mice. As a result, the image wound up looking much more like a no-line watercolour. I love the results, don't you?
Have fun checking out our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge and I hope you'll link your creation before the deadline on Monday, January 18th, 2021.
I've also entered my card in the following challenges:
House-Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge #331 - Anything Goes or New Beginnings (and what is a better new beginning than Love)
Lemon Shortbread Challenge #137 - Always Anything Goes
