Say Cheese

I have another of my House-Mouse images to share with you.  I think this one would work just as well on a birthday card, but this time I went with a Christmas card design.


I coloured the image with my polychromos pencils, I find them really therapeutic to work with and they take up far less space on my desk then my Promarker pens.  However, I have never mastered the knack of getting a really dark colour.


The backing papers are from a paper stack called 'Me to You' and the snowflake die is by Cheery Lynn.  The poinsettia flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and everything else is from my stash.

I shall be back tomorrow with this last of my cards from this Christmas.

    1. I really love House-Mouse images and am tempted by the pre-coloured images you can get, but I keep trying to get the colouring right. My bigest problem with the pencils is getting a strong colour, I just cannot do it. Other people can do it and I have watched several clips on Youtube but I cannot work out the trick. Let me know if you ever work it out.
