Here's this week's
OWH Stars and Stamps Sketch for challenge #156.
And here's my take on the challenge. I had this SNSS Cocoa Mouse image colored for another project, but it turned out to be too large, so I used it for today's sketch challenge, putting it together with some left-over pieces of dsp and card stock. The little cups are from a PTI set and I stamped them using a turquoise ink dauber.....remember those?! I hand-drew the steam coming from the tiny cups and the "4 U" was done with matching card stock and my Quickutz. The sentiment is by Hero Arts & was stamped with Versafine Onyx black ink. It was hand cut, while the ends were done with a square punch. Cocoa was colored with Copics, and I just love to color this cute little mouse!
I send you all warm wishes today, and thanks for stopping by! Make it a great Sunday!

Love your little mouse, so very cute! I really like how you used the tiny cups for the three circles in the sketch. And your colors are beautiful. Great job with this week's sketch!
ReplyDeleteNice job! I love that image!
ReplyDeleteThose little cups at the bottom are such a cool touch! Hope you are having a great day.
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job with the sketch today! I had some trouble again. I like the little cups at the bottom too! Good job! Stay warm this week!
ReplyDeleteNice job with the sketch with this cute card. You made me want to go make a cup of cocoa...(the drink not the mouse...smile) You were right in your comment on my blog. It's where I purchased that stamp. She had a cute card on the wall made up with that stamp image, and I couldn't resist buying it, and I'm glad I did.
ReplyDeleteWhat a precious card. I love how you swapped out the brads for the little cups.
ReplyDeleteThe mouse is the sweetest thing! Love the trio of cups as well.
ReplyDeleteI really like the '4 U' on the cup..great idea~ I remember the ink dauber and I could never do a thing with it. It worked perfectly for your little cups, though.
ReplyDeleteIt's an adorable card, Carol.
Have a great rest of the day.
Really cute card. I love the little mouse and how you added the " 4 U" on the cup. I like how you placed the DP too.
ReplyDeleteSweet image. Esp like the 4 U on the cup. TFS!
ReplyDeleteSuper cute! Your coloring is great!
ReplyDeleteI like how you put the "4u" sentiment on the cup cozy. Adorable!
ReplyDeleteHow cute! What and adorable image!
ReplyDeleteSo cute, all the different elements just go together so well! Makes me smile!
ReplyDeletewow- I love each and every detail! The image is adorable but you brought it to the next level! The cups with the steam- brilliant! The banner is a great touch! And your colors -very happy- will definitely bring smiles to both the sender and the recipient!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely adorable Carol, and who wouldn't want to receive this. How clever of you to add the '4U' on the cup and add the small cups at the bottom. Brilliant. Thanks for playing!
ReplyDeleteThe little coffee cups are the bottom are perfect as embellishments!
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute card!!!
ReplyDeleteI am soooo missing my cardmaking, but with a snow storm on it's way, looks like I may have a snowday tomorrow and if so, I'm creating all day.
My Mom is still not in Rehab and it's been a long and very slow recovery...too long. At this point, it's depressing and I know there is NOTHING I can do, but hope she'll be better every day.
I am VERY much looking forward to my vacation in San Diego and can't wait to HUG my son and his adorable wife....I MISS them so much and am so tired or the daily commute to the hospital. I really had wished and hoped my Mom would have been home by now...and now I wonder if she'll even be home before I leave, next Tuesday. She keeps telling me, she will be fine and NOT to worry, but it's hard! I know once she is home, I'll feel a LOT better and can only HOPE it will be sooner than later!!
In the meantime, I am missing my Scout already and hate that I have had to leave him so much these past several days, especially with me going away now too....I really want to take him, but it's so expensive and the "carry on" they allow is too small for him, so I don't' like the idea of him being squished in there for the long flight....but I almost WISH I could! That would be much better for me and HIM too!!
Hugs to you,
Lisa
