Today's Colors: Pecan Pie, Very Vanilla, Melon Mambo Dessert: Anything Goes: I chose Dry Embossing
This image is from the 1998 'Nice Mice' stamp set. I used water color pencils to color my image, die-cut it then I popped it up on foam tape. I made a wide frame since this image is quite small. For the hearts, I punched them then sponged them. I used the subtle ef for the base layer and a piece of dp for the strip. I added a white Rub On sentiment. Thanks for stopping by today! ~Roberta

Thes mice images are so sweet, and they are wearing the cutest outfits. Great coloring as well. The subtle embossing folder adds just the right amount of texture. I didn't buy that one and every time I see it used, I wished I had.

If an image was ever going to make me like mice, this would be the one! Your two little girls are just adorable, sharing their snack. I love the layout and the rub-on sentiment. Adorable!

So cute, Roberta! Some of those older sets are just too loved to get rid of. When you said you die cut the mice, I was thinking: We didn’t have die cuts in the 90s!
However, I took a closer look and realized it was the panel the mice were coloured on, lol What changes we’ve seen over the years we’ve been crafting, and it’s so nice to apply them to our beloved oldie/goodies.

Adorable mice friends. I remember this stamp set but never owned it. Love their little dresses and bonnets. Terrific layout. I like the added hearts. Wonderful idea for the challenge colors!

This is such a sweet card using today's colors. And, like you, I will always keep that wonderful embossing folder. It's just the right touch for the base.
