I didn't realize until I looked closely at this image that Mousey has been in the frosting with both paws!
The layout follows Missro's Sketch Challenge 340. I ruffled the ribbon using Scor-Tape on the back side, a fun little technique. The image was colored with Copic markers, and I faux stitched around the borders with a tracing wheel and ruler.
This goes to my niece who will soon turn 18. Hope she likes it. The inside says "EAT CAKE."

this is so cute! that little mouse looks like he's surprised he got caught sneaking the icing. i love the ruffled ribbon and how you try the techniques; i love the look, but i chicken out or i try and it just doesn't work - and no i'm not a perfectionist. :p
