A big congragulations to Michelle as todays Featured Stamper!! Her gallery needed no introduction to me!! Michelle makes cards at a great pace and with giftedness that puts me to shame!!
I changed the image - Michelle's was also a housemouse image. I stayed true to the fairly simple sketch, which I think showcased both this image as it did for Michelle!
I used copics, a bit of diamond glaze on the berries, and I know I've been MIA - our pup of 14 1/2 year passed away, my dh has had holidays, and my silly ulcer is still not fixed.. waiting on a gastro guy!! Sorry for being so lazy!( Although it took me all day to colour this sucker! )
Hope you like it - and again Michelle - CONGRAGULATIONS on your special and well earned day!!
I'll comment know - and also be back later!

Yakky! I have missed you here so much! And WOW- do you ever make a come-back sistah! This is just beautiful! Nice to see those copics at work. You have been in our prayers, and hope you can feel God's goodness even in these sad days. (I really think you need more stamp-therapy!) Beautiful case of a beautiful card Debzi! LYMI

Oh Deborah, how great to see you back, if only for a brief time! You know I'm praying for you! I can absolutely belief this took all day to color! Yikes, you must have worn those copics out of color no doubt. This is such a precious card and with that outstanding image. Definitely a winner right here. I bet Michelle will get a huge kick out of this one!
