Charming Mice

Aren't these mice just charming?  I love the one gnawing the pencil.  Reminds me of one of my grandsons, always looking for something to eat!


The image is printed and coloured with Copics (the background has shaded blue dots but it doesn't show in the photo.  A same-coloured frame is diecut and raised with 3D foam tape, as is the heat embossed stamped sentiment.  I also Versamarked and heat embossed the edge of the card in bright turquoise to match the sentiment.  I used washi tape (from my stash) which is so old it wouldn't pull off properly, but I decided I liked how the torn bits looked anyway.


Image: Housemouse
Die: unbranded
Sentiment stamp: Rosie's Studio
Also: charm, crochet cotton, washi tape
