The Pensive Mouse

I watercolored this little guy some time ago and finally got around to making a card with him. Doesn't he look thoughtful? I used my acrylic stamping block from My Favorite Things as a template for the border around the image. The stamp is another Whipper Snapper design called "Not So Chairful Mouse" and the sentiment is from a clear stamp set by Fiskars. The patterned paper is one from the Autumn Leaves MOD collection.

Don't you hate it when you finish a project and it still feels like something is missing? I really felt that way with this card. Then it hit me...this guy was thinking, really hard, so I added little "thought" bubbles by using Precious Finds adhesive gems by EK Success. I think it was just what it needed. :-)
