Cute Card Thursday Challenge -- "the two of us"

The challenge this week at Cute Card Thursday is to create a card with the theme "the two of us". I absolutely LOVE House Mouse stamps and I knew we had a few different ones I've never used before. (Just as an aside... I always order my House Mouse stamps through Dick at http://hmstamps.com because he is fabulous and has the best prices around).

One thing that makes this card unique is the fact that the gray mouse is pop-dotted (raised) to give the card dimension. When I scanned, I didn't get the full effect so I took a digital picture to try and show the dimension better.

I used Prismacolor pencils to color in the stamp and all of the paper is from Close to My Heart. The image was stamped in Staz-on black ink. I love the way the image comes out with that ink and it smells good (yeah, I'm weird).

What do you think?
