Laughter is the best medicine.....

Hello everyone: Well, it's time for another CAS challenge over at CASology with a new Cue Word for us to play along.....LAUGH, so here is my card that I hope makes you smile a little.

This image is from Katzelkraft, the set is called Les Chats Russes and I simply love all of this fabulous images of cats, oh.....and that mouse is just adorable.
I stamped the image of the mouse first onto Canson water color paper with Stazon Jet Black ink then, I made a mask of only it's legs and the part where the tail starts to be able to stamp the cat image so the mousy is actually sitting on it's head, which of course, is not making him happy at all but I was LOL!! when I saw the finished images, then, I colored them with the aqua painter and SU markers, I added a bit of shadow with Prismacolor pencils.
I die cut the image and then, fussy cut the lower part of the cat taping it to a piece of black card stock so he can appear he is sitting on the floor. 
Here is a close up of this unlikely pair of "buddies".

And here is the finished inside.

This little mouse really believes in that sentiment.
Here is the Cue Word for this week's CASology challenge.


I hope this card made you laugh a little, thank you for stopping by today, until next time, happy stamping.
Hugs from Maria.
