Mouse in the House!


  
    I just can't stay away from this little mouse! He is part of the Oh Holey Night stamp set you can get from FCD by Pamela! I wanted to do a collage with this set and Mr. Mouse had to be the focal point. I stamped him first, made a mask and then stamped the candle and the cheese. I colored with watercolored pencils, markers and then added some glitter gel pen for highlights. After I was happy with the colors I cut him out, and matted him on a circle to represent a full moon.
    I was disappointed in how the flame turned out so I made another flame with an area around it for glowing, the colors on this one were more acceptable; this was added on top of the original flame. The dp is from some Christmas paper that has been hanging around a couple of years, I can't remember exactly who makes it. Some of you may recognize it and can help give credit for it. The solid cardstock if from Club Scrap. All the stamps and saying are from FCD by Pamela! Hope you like my collage, I am pretty happy with it!
    Thanks for stopping in, leave me some "love"!
