treat yourself



Hi Everyone!  It’s my turn to share a card again over on the Stampavie blog.   It has been way too long since I used one of the adorable images from Tina Wenke so I pulled out the Mouse Holding Ice Cream image to create my card today.  Tina has such a way with adorable animal images!

I stamped my image on copic x-press it cardstock with tuxedo black memento ink and colored it with copic markers.  I used these markers:
mouse: W1, W3, W5, W7, R20, B95, B97, B99
bowl: B000, B00, B01
ice cream: YG63, YG67, R30, R32, R27, R89, E50, E51, E53, E44, E47, E49, Y32, Y35
shadow: W1
I used some patterned papers from Pink Paislee’s 365 Degrees line and a sentiment from Verve Stamps' Celebrating You stamp set.  I finished my card off with lots of stitching and a couple red buttons.

Have a great week!

Niki

Your layering is exquisite and your colouring is impecable. I havent ventured out into the world of colouring. Too chicken, I guess. But I do admire others workd. I really like how you use black cardstock to break up the layers in most of your cards.
