This is my first ever House Mouse card. My friend Pinky generousily shared several wonderful images with me. Thank you so much Pinky. I think this little mouse in the pumpkin for a Halloween costume is adorable. I could just picture a little tiny mouse trying to get stuffed into a pumpkin out by the fence post in the field. I had to give it a try. I sketched the fence on the main image with an artist pen and used the Old Olive marker on the green background layer. I used watercolor minis fern stamp to fill in the ground area on both layers. I also sponged the ground area with a mini sponge dauber on the main layer. I watercolored the main image and green layer with reinkers and a watercolor brush.

Oh, my Kittie, this card is so adorable. I love how you use the "Spotlight" technique to make him the central focus. You have really done this little mouse justice...TFS
