Inky Mouse

And by inky I mean -- Distress Inks, Archival Ink, Copics, Watercolor Pencils, Prismacolor Pencils, Gold Encore Ink, Distress ink mixed with Glossy Accents, Faber Castell White Brush Pen, and Water.  All that is missing is the partridge in a pear tree...

One of my favorite things to do is spend a few hours making an inky mess.  I've missed this.



MOOD WHEN DONE = Inky, Colorful and HAPPY

Supplies:

Stamp:  House Mouse, Impression Obsession Screen and Hero Arts (sentiment)
Ink:  (see above)
Paper:  Inchie Arts 2" x 3" mat, Mat, Memory Box Poppy Card, Amuse Studio green
Other:  (see above), paper towels, sponge, mist bottle, paint brushes

That is just adorable, Joan - a wonderful mixed media creation. And I guess I know another IO backgrounder has just gone onto my wishlist. I just love that blue background with hints of gold adn white.
