I really struggled with this card. I would find one element and then I would sit and think and then find another one. I would try out one paper and then another one. I was about to go to bed last night when I saw my big flowers and thought I bet that would work and it did. All of it together. So here it is.
The little mice are colored with copics. I almost wonder if pencils would work better as this is such a small image. I have trouble with copics when the lines are so delicate. Cut out the red with nestabilities. The button is a leather one I picked up at a craft/reinactment fair years ago. I had to cut part of the back off as it was so thick. The twine bow is adhered on top as I couldn't get two pieces of twine through the holes. The little leaves are felt that I picked up at Target's see spot save section a couple of years ago. Then I drew veins on the leaves with copics. The dp is from an angel company paper set as are the words. The gold and copper paper were some scraps I had. I am trying to use up some of my scraps as I seem to be over flowing with them. I added stickles to the image and to the big flower. I really appreciate all your comments and would love to hear what you have to say about this.

Peggy,
This is awesome. I love the way everything comes together.
Hi Peggy,
I really struggle with the House Mouse images. While I love them I have yet to produce a colored image that I thought was card-worthy. I've email Suzanne and dropped a hint about doing a video on these images. :) You have done an awesome job. Do you remember which colors you used?
Hugz,
