I was in the mood to use another House Mouse sent to me by Stacy (Twinshappy) and, low and behold, the plum pearls she sent me went perfectly with the colors I selected. Thanks so much Stacy!!!
Check out the Midnight Madness Challenges seen here:
They have great sketches and prizes and it's always fun to do their challenges.
I'm not too sure I gave this stamp justice with my coloring, but I tried. I added some silver stickles to the faucet and dazzling diamonds to the water. The rest I used a combination of SU markers and copics. I used a little crystal effects on the fruit for a little shine. I also though I'd get fancy and use some green fibers I had to wrap around the image and the main panel of the card. I have lots of fiber and rarely use it.
Anyway, for better or for worse, this is what I've come up with. Thanks so much for taking the time to look and let me know what you think if you have a chance.

Pamster, you are shocking me everytime I come to your gallery....doing a House Mouse, coloring, and doing a Fall card!!! You are really stepping out.
I love this sweet image and I guess I have told you Razzleberry is one of my favorite colors. I plan to get some of that color on my next order. Your coloring is just wonderful and I don't know why you think you can't color.
Love the ribbon, the use of Dazzling Diamonds, and stickles. Wow! This is fantastic and I love it!!!! Twinshappy will be delighted to see you used her
wonderful RAK stamp.

Darling card, Pam Isn't Stacy a sweetheart. I got some MH images from her as well - need to use a few it's been a while! LOVE what you've done here to showcase this cute image. Lovely colour selection and the pearls are perfect. Love the matted panels behind the main image as well. Great card
