Here is the card I made to help celebrate this mile stone for FMS.
I adore this little mice, (secretly, I wish they live in my house). This image is so cute and so sweet that it was joyful to color. I use Prismacolor pencils and paper stumps dipped in baby oil, which when applied to the image, blends the colors beautifully. On my last post, a dear friend asked me about this paper stumps and wanted to know where to get them, you can really get them at any craft store but I got them at Amazon, they are not that expensive at all.
I hope you like this card, I know Halloween is a couple of months away but I'm getting ahead in my card making for it, this card is for my 10 y/o granddaughter Anastasia.
Thank you for visiting and for your comments, I love reading them, and as always, if you have any questions, please ask me.
This is the sketch that inspired this card, I just used it horizontally. Till next time
Hugs from Maria.

You've done SUCH an amazing job coloring with your pencils!! LOVE this fun image and the colors are so perfect for Halloween!! :) Wonderful make and I love the meeces!!! Thanks for sharing!
How adorable ! This is perfect for your GD . I know she will love it !
Believe me when I tell you that this is the only kind of mice you want at your house ! Not my favorite animal !! My suggestion would be if you choose to have mice is get a BIG CAT !!
Thank you Vicki, coloring with pencils is my other favorite technique, fun and easy.
LOL!! Sonny, this little mice are so darn adorable that I'm sure my kitty and them would become friends.
This is so adorable! I have mice in my house (!) but they are not nearly as cute as these! Nice coloring! Thanks so much for joining us for our 200th challenge at Freshly Made Sketches!
EEKKK!! Aww!! I love little mice, even if they are not as cute as these, LOL!!
Thank you for your sweet comment Jen, I love participating at Freshly Made Sketches. Looking forward to the next one.
Well these are two adorable critters! Adorable Halloween card.....and beautifully colored! So glad you joined us at Freshly Made Sketches to celebrate our 200th!
Don't you find coloring so therapeutic! It's been a while since I've used my pencils I really should return to this medium soon! Love the little trick o treaters they are just adorable!
Maria, this is another adorable HM card. Those little mice are hard to resist. I've read that you used the baby oil technique before and I am intrigued. I am off the the craft store to buy stumps to try this. Thanks, always, for your inspiration.
Good for you to get ahead and be making Halloween cards, Maria! This one is fabulous and I know your granddaughter will love it! I love your coloring of the sweet HM image and how you have showcased it!! Enjoy your day! Hugs, Darnell
Maria, such a sweet card! I love your coloring and I am going to check out those stumps tomorrow. I love to color. It's so calming to me. I just bought some Gelatos? Not sure how they work either but I'm going to give them a try. I suspect after Friday I will have more time to play. Can't wait. Thanks for the beautiful inspiration. Hugs 😍
