What fun I had creating this card! This stamp had sat lingering in my stash for nearly four years when I was inspired to ink it up for the SCS color challenge this week.
These little mice had a feast on the party peanuts. Wonder if they saved room for the red and blue raspberry and olive dipped pearls for "dessert"?!? The background paper has been in my stash so long that I cannot remember the source, but maybe a Basic Grey Christmas line. The pennants were stamped with Versa Magic in Turquoise Gem and Tea Leaves and Brilliance in Rocket Red. The main Copic colors are R29, BG07 and YG95. I used YR20 on the peanuts and various shades of "E" for the skin and fur. Too many to list, I am not very specific when it comes to coloring, lol!
As always, thanks for looking and please leave a comment, that way I can come share some love on your blog also!!

Pink Velvet
I stamped everything with distress ink in Victorian Velvet. The stamped image is from Inkadinkado. Used my ticket stub corner punch on main image.
Thinking of You
Background on aqua was stamped with Versamark and then clear embossing powder. Stamp is large wheat grass stamp from Hero Arts. Hero Arts Manuscript Background stamp used with Thinking of You on top. Thinking of you stamp from Stampin Up circa 2001.
Simplicity in Purple
A simple thank you card for a co-worker that has helped me in my journey to learning a new job. The large flower stamp is by Stampendous. Thank you sentiment is Penny Black circa 2003.
Ink the Town Red
Last weekend I pulled out my stash and inked up stamps that had never seen ink before. One of those was my Hero Arts Large Blossom stamp. I inked it up and went to town with the red and white. The background paper was stamped with a flower from a Stampendous set.

Last Crop At Archiver's
I worked three years as an associate and instructor at Archiver's in Raleigh, N.C. The time spent there was an inspiration and joy! The customers and fellow associates are my family in the craft world! Alas, the company declared bankruptcy and closed all stores. Wahhhh!! :(
In true style, we held an employee crop for past and present employees complete with potluck snacks and a trip to Macaroni Grill for supper. So hard to believe we can never walk through those doors again.
These are three of the cards I made during that crop. The butterfly die is by Quickutz. The green card used a digital graphic image that I printed and trimmed. Any specific questions on products used, will be glad to answer!
